Answer:
Whats the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
6/18 = x/(20-x)
1/3 = x/(20-x) Multiply both sides by 20-x
(20-x)/3 = x Multiply both sides by 3
20-x = 3x Add x in both sides
20 = 4x Divide both sides by 4
5 = x
We call x the 4 points-worth problems and y the 3 points-worth problems
You know that x+y = 32
4x+3y = 111
You know that the difference from the x and y is 32 so write:
x = 32-y
Substitute at x the value of 32-y
4(32-y)+3y = 111
128-4y +3y = 111
-4y+3y = 111-128
-y = -17
y = 17
