This turns out to be a division problem. To find how many each person can get, you must divide the amount of food by how many guests.
126 divided by 21 is 6
84 divided by 21 is 4
Each guest will get 6 chocolate truffles and 4 caramel truffles.
Yes it because any function can be a solution to any certain number of different systems
Answer: x=3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the parentheses by 2/3. 9=2/3x+8.
Multiply both sides by 3 . 27=2x+24
Move the term. When moved to the left side it changes from positive to a negative. -2x=24-27.
-2x=-3
Divide both sides by -2
x=3/2 (x=1 1/2, x=1.5)
Can u send me a picture of the question instead please because i dont understand what ur trying to ask..
The question is incomplete:
James has dimes and quarters saved up in his change jar. He has a total of 162 coins totaling $31.20 what is the total amount james has in quarters?
a. $10.00
b. $6.20
c.$15.50
d.$25.00
Answer:
d.$25.00
Step-by-step explanation:
With the information provided, you can write the following equations given that dimes are equal to 0.10 and quarters to 0.25 to determine the number of dimes and quarters that James has:
x+y=162 (1)
0.10x+0.25y=31.20 (2), where:
x is the number of dimes
y is the number of quarters
First, you can solve for x in (1):
x=162-y (3)
Then, you have to replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:
0.10(162-y)+0.25y=31.20
16.2-0.10y+0.25y=31.20
0.15y=31.20-16.2
0.15y=15
y=15/0.15
y=100
Finally, you have to replace the value of y in (3) to find x:
x=162-100
x=62
Now, you know that James has 100 quarters and you can multiply this number for the value of a quarter to find the amount James has in quarters:
100*0.25=25
According to this, the answer is that James has $25 in quarters.
