Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Salma and Jared each threw 5 darts at the target shown. Salma scored 19 points by landing 2 darts in A and 3 in B. Jared scored 17 points by landing 1 dart in A and 4 in B. How many points are given for a dart landing in A?

this can be solved using simultaneous equation. Two equations can be formed from the question

2a + 3b = 19  equation 1

1a + 4b = 17    equation 2

Multiply equation 2 by 2

2a + 8b = 34  equation 3

Subtract equation 1 from 3

5b = 15

divide both sides of the equation by 5

b = 3

Substitute for b in equation 1

2a + 3(3) = 19

2a = 9 = 19

collect like terms

2a = 10

divide both sides of the equation by 2

a = 5

wel
Max would have had to have gotten 34 out of 40 questions correct. Here's why:

\frac{x}{40} =  \frac{85}{100} 

(40)(85) = (x)(100)



3400 = 100x

 \frac{3400}{100} = x


34 =x

Answer:

26 salads were ordered with Italian dressing

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of salads ordered with Italian dressing;

To find the number of salads with Italian dressing, we shall need to divide the number of cups of italian salad dressing served by the number of cups of dressing served with each salad

Mathematically, that would be;

6 1/2 divided by 1/4

= 13/2 divided by 1/4

= 13/2 * 4/1 = 26
