Let the number of green apples bought be x


Green apples = x

Red apples = 2x

Yellow apples = 1/3 (2x) = 2/3 x


Total = 22 apples

x + 2x + 2/3 x = 22

11/3 x = 22

11x = 66

x = 6


Green apples = x = 6

Red apples = 2x = 2(6) = 12

Yellow apples = 2/3 (2x) = 2/3 (6) = 4


Answer: Green = 6, Red = 12, Yellow = 4

Solve the following systems of equations 2a+4b+c=5 ; a-4b=-6 ; 2b+c=7.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

a = -2

b = 1

c = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2a + 4b + c = 5 ............(1)

a - 4b = - 6

or

a = 4b - 6 .............(2)

2b + c = 7

or

c = 7 - 2b   ...........(3)

substituting 2 and 3 in  1, we get

2(4b - 6 ) + 4b + (7 - 2b) = 5

or

8b - 12 + 4b + 7 - 2b = 5

or

10b - 5 = 5

or

b = 1

substituting b in 2, we get

a = 4(1) - 6

or

a = -2

substituting b in 3, we get

c = 7 - 2(1)

or

c = 5

thus,

a = -2

b = 1

c = 5
