0.10r + 0.20b = 24
3r = b + 20....b = 3r - 20
0.10r + 0.20(3r - 20) = 24
0.10r + 0.60r - 4 = 24
0.70r = 24 + 4
0.70r = 28
r = 28/0.70
r = 40 <=== there are 40 reds
0.10r + 0.20b = 24
0.10(40) + 0.20b = 24
4 + 0.20b = 24
0.20b = 24 - 4
0.20b = 20
b = 20/0.20
b = 100 <=== there are 100 blues

Answer:
2 + m- 1 + m
Step-by-step explanation:
3m +1 -m
Combine like terms
3m-m +1
2m +1
We can split the m's
m+m +1
And we can rewrite 1 as 2-1
m+m+2-1
m+2+m-1
Rearranging the order
