Guppies: u
Goldfish: o
3 times as many guppies as goldfish
3*o = u (there are more guppies than goldfish)
o + u = 20
o = 20 - u
Substitute in (20 - u) for o in the first equation and solve:
3* (20 - u) = u
60 - 3u = u
60 = 4u
u = 15
He has 15 guppies. Then substitute in the number of guppies into either equation to find the number of goldfish:
o + u = 20
o + (15) = 20
o = 5
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: The Answer is pie
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em><u>4(10+9) - 40 + 36</u></em>
<em><u>9(5+2) - 45 + 18</u></em>
<em><u>3(12+7) - 36 + 21</u></em>
If 3+4 = 7 and 6+7 = 7 leads to 3+4 = 6+1, then you are using the transitive property. In general the property says that if a = b and b = c, then a = c.
