If there are ten black pens, eight blue pens, and twenty pens in total, then there are 2 red pens. This means that the ratio of red to black is 2:10=1:5. Hope this helps!

Answer:  The ratio represents the number of red pens to black pens = 1:5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total pens in package = 20

Number of black pens = 10

Number of blue pens = 8

Number of red pens =   (Total pens in package) - (Number of black pens ) -(Number of blue pens )

= 20-10-8

=2

Now , the ratio represents the number of red pens to black pens =

Number of red pens : Number of black pens

=2 : 10

= 1 :5  [Dividing both sides by 2]

Thus , the ratio represents the number of red pens to black pens = 1:5.

How to solve this substitution​
Lena [83]
-5x+4y=11
substitute for x which is 5
(-5)(5)+4y=11

simplify :
4y-25=11

add 25 on both sides
4y-25=11
+25 +25
the 25 cancels out

so it would be 4y=36
and you divide both sides by 4

4/4 =36/4

which gives you (5,9)
x= 5 , y =9
