B=blue
g=green
r=red
2 times as many blue as green
b=2g
3 times as many red as blue
r=3b
subsitute 2g for b
r=3(2g)=6g
r=6g

r+g+b=765
so we subsitute
r=6g
g=g
b=2g

6g+g+2g=765
add like terms
9g=765
divide both sides by 9
g=85
subsitute
b=2b
b=2(85)
b=170

170 blue

Sid and Libby are planning to sell pies at a local fair.
=> $200 to rent a table at the fair.<span>
=>  $3.00 per pie </span>costs for ingredients, other supplies, baking, and packaging<span>
They plan to sell the pies for $8 each. 
Let's find out how many pies will they be selling inorder to gain profit
=> 200 + 3.00(n) = 8(n), where n is the number of pie.
Let's try 40
=> 200 + 3(40) = 8 (40)
=> 320 = 320 
</span>=> 200 + 3(41) = 8 (41)
=> 323 = 328
<span>Thus, in their 41st pie, they will get a profit

On his drive from Montpelier, Vermont, to Columbia, South Carolina, Arthur averaged 51 mph. If he had been able to average 60 mp
Llana [10]

Answer:

Distance between Montpelier and Columbia is 1020

Step-by-step explanation:

51 mi/hr average:

d = 51 t  

60 mi/hr average:

d t = 60*(t-3)

Substitute (1) into (2)  

   51 t =  60*(t-3)

   51 t =  60 t + 180

   9 t  =  180

   t    =   20

d = 51 t

   = 51 (20)

   = 1020

let see distance is 1020 lets check

51 t = 60 * (t-3)

51 (20)= 60* (20-3)

1020   = 60*17

1020 = 1020
