Answer:
45 lbs of 90 cent candies and 5 lbs of 40 cent candies
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
41 inches of wire will cost 164 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
1st Method
Use proportions!
18/ 72 = 41/ c
Cross multiply
18 * c = 72 * 41
18c = 2952 divide both sides by 18
<em>c = 164</em>
2nd Method.
Find the rate of the costs. r = rate
18*r = 72
r = 4 cents/inch
Now that you've found the rate you can multiply it by 41 inches to find the cents the wire costs!
41 inch * r (cents/inch) inches cancels out.
41 * 4 = 164
<em>164 cents</em>
3+5+7 = 15 total marbles
3 are red
so she has a 3/15 reduces to 1/5 probability of picking a red one
Hi there! A = 78
A + 44 = B
We can plug in the values of A and B into the equation. We then get an equation with only one variable (x), which we can solve.
1x + 76 + 44 = - 6x + 134
Collect terms.
1x + 120 = - 6x + 134
Add 6x to both sides.
7x + 120 = 134
Subtract 120 from both sides
7x = 14
Divide both sides by 7
x = 14 / 7 = 2
A = 1x + 76
Now plug in the value of x we just found
A = 2 + 76 = 78
