I believe the answer is C :)
Answer:
x = 5 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using substitution.
Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y
2x + 1y = 25
x + y = 20
These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).
For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.
ACTUAL WORK
Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x
x = 25 - y / 2
Replace x with y in the second equation
(25 - y / 2) + y = 20
And solve for y
y = 15
Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is
x + 15 = 20
Solve for x
x = 5
Answer:
1. 12 inches are in 1 foot, 48 inches of ribbon divided by 12 is 4 feet of ribbon.
2. Since there are 12 inches in 1 foot you multiply by 3 to 12 inches for 36 inches of ribbon.
3. When you're finding inches you need to divide but when you're finding feet you need to multiply.
4. His library card is 80 millimeters and since there are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter you divide 80 by 10 to get 8 centimeters
5. His key chain is 35 millimeters long.
6. 3 quarts is bigger than 5 pints by 2 cups.
Picture contains the work you should show for questions 5 and 6.
The answer is x=27. your welcome. :)
Answer:
5/24 or 20.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability that the 7th grader is a boy = number of boys/(total kids) = 4/(4+4) = 1/2
Probability that the 8th grader is a boy = 5/(5+7) = 5/12
Probability that both are boys = 1/2*(5/12) = 5/24 or 20.8%
