Three boxes contain counters

1 answer:

3 0

What we Know: 3 box have some counters. There are 63 counters when they are all combined.
A and B counters = 36
The difference between A and C is 10.
Since we already know A and B we can subtract them from 63 to get C
C= 63- 36 = 27
Now we have to find A by looking for what number gives us the difference of 10 when subtracted from C.
36 = 18+ 18 or 19+ 17
18 and 18 wont work because it does not give us the difference of 10.
So A = 17 counters and B = 19 counters.

CAN SOMEONE PLZZ HELP ME THE LAST QUESTION PLZZZZZ?????

MissTica

first is proportional. y is 1 and 1/4 times x

second is not proportional.

reason? divided any y value by its corresponding x value and you'll keep getting 1.25, or 1 and 1/4. and the second one is not proportional because dividing the y values by their corresponding x value will give different answers.

maybe im wrong maybe im right you choose to trust me or not.
