Let number of fives = x then number of ones = 3x and number of tens = x - 1
so we can create the equation
x + 3x + x-1 + y = 26 where y = number of twenties
so
5x + y = 27
also we have the equation
5x + 3x + 10(x - 1) + 20y = 120
18x + 20y = 130..................................(1)
5x + y = 27 multiply by -20:-
-100x - 20y = -540..............................(2)
Adding equation (1) and (2)
-82x = -410
x = 5, that is 5 fives
Now plug x = 5 into equation 1:-
18(5) + 20y = 130
20y = 40
y = 2 , that is 2 twenties
So the answer is there are (3x) = 15 ones , 5 fives, 4 tens and 2 twenties
Answer:
-22
Step-by-step explanation:
The function y=400-22x is a linear equation in the form y=mx + b. Although they put "mx" after "b" so the equation doesn't start with a negative.
"m" is rate of change, or the slope if graphed.
The negative means "y" decreases as "x" increases. On a graph, it decreases left to right.
Answer:
k = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 32 when x = 4, then
32 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )
8 = k
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Total melon= 1 1/2
In simple fraction= 3/2
DIvide 3/2 by 2
= 3/2/3
=3/2 * 1/3
=3/6
= 1/2
Hence each person will get 1/2 of the whole water melon
