Step-by-step explanation:
120/20=6g
50/20=2.5g
170/20=8.5g
for one shortbread ^^
6*50=300g
2.5*50=125g
8.5*50=425g
for 50 shortbread ^^
25%
Because You must do the original number by the new.
so, 425-340= 85
but ur not done now,
divide that 85 by the original number then times by 100!
85/340= .25*100= 25%
and ur done hope this helped
Answer:
I think the answer is 3÷3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
im not sure, when i worked it out in my head that's the answer that made the most sense
Let
x---------> the number
we know that
[9+2x]*4=4x+12
36+8x=4x+12
8x-4x=12-36
4x=-24
x=-24/4
x=-6
the answer is
-6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call hens h and ducks d. The first algebraic equation says that 6 hens (6h) plus (+) 1 duck (1d) cost (=) 40.
The second algebraic equations says that 4 hens (4h) plus (+) 3 ducks (3d) cost (=) 36.
The system is
6h + 1d = 40
4h + 3d = 36
The best way to go about this is to solve it by substitution since we have a 1d in the first equation. We will solve that equation for d since that makes the most sense algebraically. Doing that,
1d = 40 - 6h.
Now that we know what d equals, we can sub it into the second equation where we see a d. In order,
4h + 3d = 36 becomes
4h + 3(40 - 6h) = 36 and then simplify. By substituting into the second equation we eliminated one of the variables. You can only have 1 unknown in a single equation, and now we do!
4h + 120 - 18h = 36 and
-14h = -84 so
h = 6.
That means that each hen costs $6. Since the cost of a duck is found in the bold print equation above, we will sub in a 6 for h to solve for d:
1d = 40 - 6(6) and
d = 40 - 36 so
d = 4.
That means that each duck costs $4.
