Let the number of cards in each group be 2x and 3x.
So,
2x + 3x = 120
5x = 120
x = 120 / 5
x = 24
Number of cards in each group is
2x = 2 × 24 = 48
3x = 3 × 24 = 72
Let x, x+1,x+2, x +3 are the <span>numbers
so
</span>x + x +1 + x +2 +x +3 = 198
4x + 6 = 198
4x =198-6
4x = 192
x = 192/4
x = 48
x + 1 = 48 + 1 = 49
x + 2 = 48 + 2 = 50
x + 3 = 48 + 3 = 51
proof
48 + 49 + 50 + 51 = 198
so the numbers are 48, 49, 50, 51
fourth number in this sequence is 51
Note that when x=0, y=-6, so d cannot be right. Note that 2 and -1.5 are solutions. The only answer choice that has both as zeroes is a.
6 cups of cheese servings times 5 = 30
10 cups of cheese servings time 5 = 50
So , it's 10 cups of cheese servings.
A 40 is the lowest she can make and that would give her exactly a 70 average.
