The answer, at least what I got, is 17.375 . They'd have to open an eighteenth package because the extra .375 is not in the original package, so I would go with B .
Answer:
ummm I think the answer is Carrot
Let x be the number of boys, the number of girls will be 200-x
Number of boys with blue eyes x/3
Number of girls with blue eyes (200-x)/4
ll blue eyes ==> x/3 + (200-x)/4 = 57
Reduce to same denominator & solve for x
(4x + 600 - 3x)/12 = 681/12
x=81, the total number of boys & girls200-81 119
I got ten. Here's the equation.
x = 1/2x + 5
<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>
<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>
<span>1/2x = 5 </span>
<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>
<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>
<span>x = 10 cats</span>
