Most of the information's are already given in the question. It is important to understand the language of the problem for solving the problem. Once the language is understood, then solving the problem is easy.
Let us assume the number of black jelly beans = x
Number of yellow jelly beans = y
Then from the question we can get to a equation.
3x - 7 = y
We also know from the question that
x + y = 225
x + 3x -7 = 225
4x = 225 + 7
4x = 232
x = 232/4
   = 58
So Cassidy has 58 black jelly beans out of the total of 225 jelly beans

Please help. A rectangle's length and width are in a ratio of 7:3. The area is 84 square feet. What are the
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

length = 14 feet

width = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 84 feet square

ratio of length and width = 7 : 3

total ratio of length and width 10 = a

length = (7/10)a

width = (3/10)a

A = length x width = (7/10)a x (3/10)a = (21/100)a² = 84

a² = 84 x 100 : 21 = 400

a = 20 feet

length = 7/10 x 20 = 14 feet

width = 3/10 x 20 = 6 feet

[CORRECT ANSWER RECEIVES BRAINLIEST ONLY
sammy [17]

Answer:

step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The student first made an error in the step 2.

Because if we simplify the equation A in step 1, we should distribute the right side of the equation following the rule a(b-c) = a*b +a*(-c)

So, it would be

–7y = (-7)*(16)+(-7)*(-2z)

=> -7y = -112 + 14z

What is your opinion that we should raise the drinking/smoking ages to 21?
timofeeve [1]
In my opinion the ages for drinking/smoking should not be raised to 21. While I am not a fan of either and they almost never lead to good things, it just seems odd to me that a person can fight for his country at 18, but can't smoke or drink.
