It looks like everyone's amount of money is based on Maria's amount of money. Let's say Maria is M, Hans is H and Dan is D. Maria has M amount of money. If Hans has 10 more than Maria, he has M+10. If Dan has 3 times what Hans has and Hans has (M+10), then Dan has 3(M+10) which is 3M+30. Altogether they have 95 dollars. So we will add up what they have and set it equal to 95. M+10+M+30+3M=95. That simplifies to 5M+40=95 and 5M=55. Therefore, Maria has 11 dollars. Hans has 10+11=21, and Dan has 3(21)=63. 11+21+63=95
Answer:
206 Cornish hens
169 turkeys
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of Cornish hens sold. Then c-37 is the number of turkeys sold. The total sales would be ...
... c + (c-37) = 375
... 2c = 412 . . . . collect terms, add 37
... c = 206 . . . . Cornish hens sold
... (c-37) = 169 . . . turkeys sold

<em>Comment on this type of problem</em>
Note that the solution to this problem is that the larger number (number of cornish hens) is half the sum of the total and the difference: (375+37)/2 = 206. This is the general solution for this type of "sum and difference" problem.
The larger contributor is half the total plus half the difference; the smaller contributor is half the total minus half the difference.
Cornish hens = (1/2)(375 +37) = 206
Turkeys = (1/2)(375 -37) = 169
Answer: 1
Step-by-step explanation: 545+2100+695= 3340
$4,940-$3,340= $1,600
1600/160,000 x 100 = 1
