Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 18.

5 times the first number subtracted from 4/7 of the second number is 14.

First number --> x

Second number --> y

so

x + y = 18 --> x = 18-y

5x - (4/7)y = 14

so

5 (18-y) - (4/7)y = 14

90 - 5y - 4/7 y = 14

-5.57 y = 14-90

y = 13.64

so

x = 18 - 13.64

x = 4.36

harina [27]

Answer:

490

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first count the handshakes between two gremlins. There are 20 gremlins, so there must be 20*19/2=190 handshakes between two gremlins, making sure to divide by two to avoid over-counting.

There are 15 imps that shake hands with each of the 20 gremlins, which makes 15* 20 = 300 handshakes between imps and gremlins.

Adding these up, you have $300 + 190 = 490 total handshakes.

Hope this helps!
