Answer:
C. 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say M is the original number of men and W is the original number of women.
M / W = 3 / 5
(M+2) / (W+1) = 2 / 3
Let's cross multiply both equations:
5M = 3W
3(M+2) = 2(W+1)
Let's simplify the second equation:
3M + 6 = 2W + 2
3M + 4 = 2W
From the first equation:
M = 3/5 W
Substitute:
3 (3/5 W) + 4 = 2W
9/5 W + 4 = 2W
4 = 1/5 W
W = 20
There were originally 20 women.
Let's check our answer. That would mean that M = 3/5 W = 12.
After 2 men walk in and 1 woman, W = 21 and M = 14, so 14/21 = 2/3. Looks like the answer is correct!
Answer C.
True
because u gotta think about it like that for more then 5 seconds
I have no idea math should have been working hade books bye sorry
I would say 3 because terms are separated by a plus or minus sign and there are 2 subtraction signs separating 3 expressions.
Answer: ( 0, 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to put coordinates of each graph on these equations y = -x + 2 and y = (1/2)x + 2. If putting coordinates satisfies both equations, then that coordinate will be the solution.
For example, let's put (0, 2) to equations.
y = -x + 2
2 = -0 + 2
2 = 2, true
y = (1/2)x + 2
2 = (1/2) × 0 + 2
2 = 2, true
So, ( 0, 2 ) is the solution.
