The answer is 50 & 24
x - the bigger number
y - the smaller number
<span>The sum of a number and two times a smaller number is 98:
x + 2y = 98
</span><span>The bigger number is 22 less than three times the smaller number:
x = 3y - 22
</span>x + 2y = 98
x = 3y - 22
________
3y - 22 + 2y = 98
5y - 22 = 98
5y = 98 + 22
5y = 120
y = 120/5
y = 24
x = 3y - 22
x = 3 * 24 - 22
x = 72 - 22
x = 50
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
So there are 20 kids with brown hair and this represents 80% of the class total.
So this means 20=.8n since we don't know the total number of kids.
20=.8n
Divide both sides by .8
25=n
So 25 is the total number of kids.
C. is the answer
You could also setup this equation given that 80% is 80/100:
[tex]\frac{20}{\text{ total }}=\frac{80}{100}
To figure out what that total is there you can divide top and bottom of the fraction on right hand side by 4 which gives you the 20 on top and the 25 on bottom.
8/3 as a mixed fraction is 2_2/3
The answer is C. All you have to do it’s divide 396 by 12 then choose C because you add 30 and 3 to get the quotient
