4 is the answer because for every green balloon there are 4 red balloons
P = how many cars Peter has
j = how many cars Jade has
a = how many cars Andre has
p x 4 = how many cars Andre has (36 model cars)
>>>TO FIND HOW MANY MODEL CARS PETER HAS:
p x 4 = 36
36 / 4 = 9
your equation to find how many model cars Peter has is:
36 / 4 = 9
So, Peter has 9 model cars.
>>>TO FIND HOW MANY MODEL CARS JADE HAS:
36 / 4 = how many cars Peter has (9)
Now, you are given the info that Jade has THREE TIMES (3x) as many cars as Peter already.
So, your equation for this one is:
9 x 3 = 27
So Jade has 27 model cars.
---- Jade has 27 model cars.
---- Andre has 36 model cars.
---- Peter has 9 model cars.
equation for a. 36 / 4 = p
equation for b. 9 x 3 = j
-2x + 2y + 3z = 0 → 2x - 2y - 3z = 0 → 2x - 2y - 3z = 0
-2x - 1y + 1z = -3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3
2x + 3y + 3z = 5 → 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 -3y - 2z = -3
-2x + 2y + 3z = 0 → 2x - 2y - 3z = 0
-2x - 1y + 1z = -3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3
2x + 3y + 3z = 5 → 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 → 2x + 3y + 3z = 5
-2y - 4z = -2
-3y - 2z = -3 → -6y - 4z = -6
-2y - 4z = -2 → -2y - 4z = -2
-4y = -4
-4 -4
y = 1
-3y - 2z = -3
-3(1) - 2z = -3
-3 - 2z = -3

-2z = 0
-2 -2
z = 0
-2x + 2y + 3z = 0
-2x + 2(1) + 3(0) = 0
-2x + 2 + 0 = 0
-2x + 2 = 0

-2x = -2
-2 -2
x = 1
(x, y, z) = (1, 1, 0)
If he made 25 percent profit, the selling price (1200 naira) is 125 percent.
If 125% is equal to 1200 naira
100 percent (the original) will be 100 × 1200 divided by 125
Which is 120000 ÷ 125
Therefore, the cost price is 960 naira
The answer is 3 1/4 if I'm correct
