Answer:
1 is 136, 2 is 44, annd 4 is 44
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>K = 3D. K - 4 = 5(D - 4). K - 4 = 5D - 20. K = 5D - 16. 3D = 5D - 16. 16 = 2D. D = 8. K = 3 x 8. K = 24.</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the total money she had first.
x - x×1/4 - (x - x×1/4)×1/2 = 15
you see, first we needed to deduct 1/4 of x from x. that left us with (x - x×1/4). and from that we need to deduct 1/2.
now, we can simplify :
(x - x×1/4) = (x×4/4 - x×1/4) = x×3/4
x×3/4 - x×3/4 × 1/2 = 15
x×3/4 - x×3/8 = 15
we multiply both sides by 8 (4 is a factor of 8, so this handled both fractions perfectly) :
x×3×2 - x×3 = 120
6x - 3x = 120
3x = 120
x = $40
she had $40 at the beginning.
I'm pretty sure its 100 because if she gave each of her 19 students 5 invitations that equals 95. (19×5=95) And She had 5 leftover equals 100. (95+5=100)
