"A" IS THE ANSWER
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/5 can for 1 (each) room, then:
for 51 rooms, (51*1/5)=10.2 rooms.
Round to nearest whole number since you can't just paint 0.2 of a room: answer = 10
Answer:
<em>Riley has 72 tokens</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations
</u>
We have two conditions for the tokens Riley and Erik have earned. Let's call x and y to the number of tokens of Riley and Erik respectively. The first condition states that

Solving for y

The second condition is that the ratio of the number of tokens that Riley had to the number of tokens that Erik has is 8 to 7. It's written as

Or equivalently

Replacing y from the first equation

Operating

Simplifying


Riley has 72 tokens

0.925x^2 - 4x + 20 = -1.125x^2 + 6x + 40 (at break even point)
2.05x^2 - 10x - 20 = 0
x = [ - (-10) +/- sqrt(100 - 4*2.05*-20) / (2*2.05)
x = 6.40, -1.52 Ignore the negative
Answer is 6.40
