Answer:

12 blueberries and 4 strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

We can try the guess method.

3:1      3 + 1 = 4     4 is too low. We need a sum of 16.

Multiply both numbers in the ratio by 2.

6:2     6 + 2 = 8   8 is still too low

Multiply both numbers in the ratio by 4.

12:4    12 + 4 = 16    16 is correct.

Answer: 12 blueberries and 4 strawberries

Lady_Fox [76]
Simplifying <span>4y + -70 = 12y + 2
</span>
Add -12y to each side of the equation. -70 + 4y + -12y = 2 + 12y + -12y 

<span>Add 70 to each side of the equation. -70 + 70 + -8y = 2 + 70
</span>
Divide each side by -8.
<span>
</span>So y = -9 is your answer.

12−(−2) over a line 12−6÷2
joja [24]

Given 12−(−2) over a line 12−6÷2

We can use PEMDAS rule and solve the expression in the order as given below:-

1. Parentheses

2. Exponents

3. Multiplication

4. Division

5. Addition

6. Subtraction

Now solving for given expression:-

\frac{12-(-2)}{12-(\frac{6}{2})}\\\\=\frac{12+2}{12-3}\\\\=\frac{14}{9}

So final answer is 14/9 i.e. 14 over 9.
