3/6 of the beads are purple
3/6 simplified = 1/2
1/2 of 18, or 18/2 = 9
9 beads are purple
hope this helps

First, make a equation in which r= red and b=blue.
So, since in the first box it has 4 red models and one blue model equaling 12,
the first equation looks like 4r+b=12.
The second equation looks like 2r+b=8.
What you would do is try and first solve for r by getting rid of b.
Since both equation has a positive b, you would make one equation have a negative b by multiplying the whole equation by -1.
-1*(2r+b=8)= -2r-b=-8
Add.
4r+b=12
+(-2r-b=-8)
2r=4
r=2
Then, you plug in 2 for the r for any of the original equations.
4(2)+b=12
8+b=12
b=4
or
2(2)+b=8
4+b=8
b=4
So, the red models weigh 2 pounds while the blue models weigh 4.
Answer: A, D
Step-by-step explanation:
68 is the initial amount.
A is correct because 0.2(68) represents 20% of 68. Since you're looking for 80% of 68, you subtract 0.2(68) from 68.
D is correct because it directly takes 80% of 68, which is what the question is asking for.
<span>The expression is missing from the question, but here is the given expression which I got from a similar question.
48 + 54 = ___ ´ (8 + 9)
Theleft-hand side of the equation is:
48 + 54 = 102
Now the right-hand side of the equation:
A </span>× (8+9) = Right-hand side
A × (8+9) = 102
Solving for the unknown variable A,
A × 17 = 102
Dividing by 17 on both sides,
A × 17 ÷ 17 = 102 ÷ 17
A × 1 = 6
A = 6
Hence,
48 + 54 = 6 x (8 + 9)
