If a ratio of skiers and snumboarders is 1:2, and if there are 1250 snowboarders more than skiers, it means that is that there 2500 snowboarders and 1250 skiers.
How to check it? 2500 is 1250 more than 1250 and the ratio is still 1:2 (there are two times more snowboarders than skiers). Both conditions are fulfiled, so it's correct.
Answer:
A cantaloupe costs $4
Step-by-step explanation:
Watermelons = W
Cantaloupes = C
Write given statements as equations
5W + 6C = 54
4W + 8C = 56
Simplify the second equation
4W + 8C = 56
Subtract 8C from both sides of the equation
4W = 56 - 8C
Divide both sides of the equation by 4
W = 14 - 2C
Substitute into second equation
5W + 6C = 54
5(14 - 2C) + 6C = 54
Multiply 5(14 - 2C)
70 - 10C + 6C = 54
Add -10C + 6C
70 - 4C = 54
Add 4C to both sides of the equation
70 = 54 + 4C
Subtract 54 from both sides of the equation
16 = 4C
Divide both sides of the equation by 4
C = 4
A cantaloupe costs $4
5W + 6(4) = 54
Multiply 6(4)
5W + 24 = 54
Subtract 24 from both sides of the equation
5W = 30
Divide both sides of the equation by 5
W = 6
A cantaloupe costs $4
A watermelon costs $6
Hope this helps :)
775 miles. Divide 7.75 by .5 and then times the answer by 50.
