I have been struggling at this please help

Mathematics
1 answer:
Taya2010 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

I shall change the pictures to letters

a + a + b = 40 --(1)

b - c = 7 --(2)

c + a = 19 --(3)

a - c + b = ?

From (1):

2a + b = 40

b = 40 - 2a --(4)

From (2):

b = 7 + c --(5)

Sub (4) into (5):

40 - 2a = 7 + c

c = 33 - 2a --(6)

Sub (6) into (3):

33 - 2a + a = 19

a = 14

Sub a = 14 into (4) and (6):

b = 40 - 2(14) = 12

c = 33 - 2(14) = 5

therefore, a - c + b = 14 - 5 + 12 = 21

Evaluate \dfrac {15}k
Georgia [21]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

We desire to evaluate the fraction: \dfrac{15}{k} when k=3.

This is a simple substitution, so what is required is

  • Replace k with the given number
  • Simplify the resulting expression

Therefore, when k=3

\dfrac{15}{k}=\dfrac{15}{3}=5

You can try the same for any value of k.

In a survey, the ratio of the number of people who preferred tea to those who preferred coffee was 9:5
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

45 people prefered coffee, 81 people prefered tea. A total of 126 people were surveyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the people who prefer tea, and let c be the people who prefer coffee.

The ratio between tea and coffee is 9:5, thus we have t/c=9/5. Cross products  give us 5t=9c.

Also, we have 36 more people prefer tea than coffee, so we have c+36=t

Thus we have: 5(c+36)=9c

5c+180=9c

180=4c

c=45

c+36=t

45+36=81
