The candy shop puts 10 ounces of gummy bears in each box. How many boxes do they need to fill if there are 2,114 pounds of gummy
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

We know that one pound is 16 ounces.

<u>To calculate the number of boxes, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Number of boxes= (2,114*16) / 10

Number of boxes= 3,382.4 boxes

One number is seven less than four times the other number. The sum of the two numbers is 93. Find the numbers.
ivann1987 [24]

You can write the two equations x = 4y - 7 and x + y = 93; substitute the value of x into the other equation

(4y - 7) + y = 93; combine like terms

5y - 7 = 93; add 7 to both sides

5y = 100; divide both sides by 5

y = 20; substitute this value into the other equation

x + 20 = 93

x = 73

So the numbers are 20 and 73
