Answer: n = 75; p = 30
Explanation: (a) 5p + 4n = 450 where p is for pen and n is for notebook.
(b) 10p + 3n = 525
We can use the elimination method to solve these two equations.
1. Multiply the first equation by 2 so that 10p will cancel out:
2(5p + 4n = 450)
- 10p + 3p = 525
10p + 8n = 900
- 10 p + 3n = 525
5n = 375
2. Divide by 5 to get n alone: n = 75
3. Plug 75 into the first equation: 5p + 4(75) = 450
5p + 300 = 450
4. Subtract 300 from 450: 5p = 150
5. Divide by 5 to get p alone: p = 30
We can test if this is correct by plugging our answers into the second equation:
10(30) + 3(75) = 525
300 + 225 = 525
525 = 525
This is a true statement, which means that our answers are correct.
Answer:
3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
11.5 - 2.5 = 9
9 - 5.5 = 3.5
and scalene triange means none of the 3 sides are equal...
3.5 does not equal 5.5 or 2.5

Answer:
325m = c
Step-by-step explanation:
Each meeting room has 325 chairs.
Since we don't know how many meeting rooms there are, the number is replaced with the variable, m.
An equation is a problem with an equals sign so you need to put what it would equal.
Since you don't know how many meeting rooms there are you use the variable, c which represents the total number of chairs.
