Answer:
Each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the bags are identical, Let them Number of candies in each bag sue had be x. Thus, she had 5x candies. Since she lost 25 pieces, then she now has;
5x - 25 candies left.
We are told that Ted had 4 bags with the same number of candies like Sue had. Thus, he has 4x candies.
He mysteriously found 10 additional pieces. Total Ted now has is;. 4x + 10
Finally, we are told that Sue and Ted now have an equal number of candies.
Thus;
5x - 25 = 4x + 10
Rearranging, we have;
5x - 4x = 25 + 10
x = 35
Thus, each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
3x² + 9x - 54 :(3)
x² + 3x - 18
(x-3)*(x+6)
20...just draw 20 coins or something
Answer:
x=30
y=17
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 6x+9 = 129 since they are vertical angles
6x+9 = 129
Subtract 9 from each side
6x+9 -9 =129-9
6x = 120
Divide by 6
6x/6 =120/6
x = 20
3y+129 =180 since they make a straight line and straight line are equal to 180 degrees
3y+129 =180
Subtract 129 from each side
3y+129-129=180-129
3y = 51
Divide by 3
3y/3 = 51/3
y = 17
