Answer:
Joyce has total 62 colored beads.
Step-by-step explanation:
For making groups of 9, let the number of beads be x.
total beads = 9x + 8
For making groups of 8, let the number of beads be y.
total beads = 8y + 6
As the total number of beads in both cases are same so,
9x + 8= 8y + 6
or, 9x-8y = -2
Now lets check the values through hit and trial;
First check; x=6, y=7
9*6 - 8*7 = -2
or, 54- 56 = -2
or, -2 =-2
This satisfies our equation.
Hence; Total beads = 9*6 + 8 = 62
The total number of beads joyce had is 62.
2x+2y=4x+6y
and then x will equal 2y
Answer:
X = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Y + X = 88
2) 58 + X = 88
