Answer:
d = (14.75 - (4 × 2.50) ÷ 2
Step-by-step explanation:
the cost of 1 drumstick = d
2.50×4=10.00
14.75-10.00=4.75
4.75÷2=2 3/8
2 3/8 = 2.375
Answer:
16 for Sol A and 24 for Sol B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number of ounces of Solution A
Let y = the number of ounces of Solution B
x + y = 40 y = 40 - x
.60x + .85y = .75(40)
.60x + .85y = 30 Multiply both sides of the equation by 100 to remove the decimal points.
60x + 85y = 3000
60x + 85(40 - x) = 3000
60x + 3400 - 85x = 3000
-25x = -400
x = 16 ounces
y = 40 - 16
y = 24 ounces
Answer:
y = -6, x =2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve by elimination, you have to line both equations up together. Then, you multiply both equations until one variable is removed.
2x+y = -2
5x + 3y = - 8
There are many different ways to solve an elimination problem, but generally you should look for the simplest route. Here, I would multiply the top equation by -3.
-6x -3y = 6
5x +3y = -8
Imagine you are adding the two equations together. You end up with
-x = -2
Then solve for x. In this situation, it is fairly simple. Take out a factor of -1.
x = 2
Finally, choose one of your beginning equations and plug your new-found x value back into the equation.
2(2) +y = -2
4 + y = -2
y = -6
Answer:
I guess make a certain amount of objects and divide them individually between two or more things or people within an even number. Example: 20 apples split into and even amount which would be 10 amongst let's say 2 ppl.
