Hi!
200 ÷ 2 = 50
200 ÷ 3 = 66.6 repeat.
200 ÷ 4 = 50
200 ÷ 5 = 40
200 ÷ 6 = 33.3 repeat.
So, there can be either 50 or 40 apples in that box.
Answer:
The answer to your question is x = 6 and y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
AB = x DF = 18
BC = 5 FE = 15
AC = 3 DE = y
Process
1.- Find y
Use proportions to find it
DE/FE = AC/BC
Substitution
y/15 = 3/5
Solve for y
y = 15(3/5)
y = 45/5
y = 9
2.- Find x
AB/DF = BC/FE
Substitution
x/18 = 5/15
Solve for x
x = 18(5/15)
x = 90/15
x = 6
Answer:
There are 9 quarters and 3 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
problems used: 0.5x+0.25y=3.09
x=y+6
so substitute what x is equal to into the problem
0.5(y+6)+0.25y=3.09 <--------- distribute
0.5y+3+0.25y=3.09 <--------- Combine like terms
0.3y+3=3.09 <----------- Subtract 3 on both sided to get y by itself
0.3y=0.9 <------------ Divide by 0.3 on both sides to get what y is equal to
y=3 <-------- now substitute to find what x is equal to
x=3+6
x=9
