3x-x+2=4 is what I believe your looking for. Hope this one helps.
We can have different variables to represent each brother (there can be different variations and ways to solve, but I'll do it my way).
Matt=m
Jeff=3m
Todd=m+25
Matt Jeff Todd
m+3m+(m+25)=275 3(50) 50+25
5m+25=275 =150 =75
5m=250
m=50
Matt spent $50, Jeff spent $150 and Todd spent $75
Check:
50+150+75
=$225
Answer:
The market sold 18 6-ounce cans of soup on Tuesday
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question
- The number of the 6-ounce cans is x
- The number of 12-ounce cans is y
- 6x + 12y = 420
→ Divide each term by 6 to simplify the equation
- x + 2y = 70 ⇒ (1)
- x + y = 44 ⇒ (2)
→ Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)
- (x - x) + (2y - y) = (70 - 44)
- 0 + y = 26
- y = 26
Substitute the value of y in equation (2) to find the value of x
-x + 26 = 44
→ Subtract 26 from both sides
- x + 26 - 26 = 44 - 26
- x = 18
- x represents the number of the 6-ounce cans
- The market sold 18 6-ounce cans of soup on Tuesday
