Answer:
The options are not shown, so i will answer in a general way.
Let's define the variables:
h = number of hats
m = number of mugs.
We know that a total of 1000 items were ordered, then:
h + m = 1000
We also know that we have 3 times more mugs than hats, this can be written as:
m = 3*h
Now we have the system of equations:
h + m = 1000
m = 3*h
To solve these, we usually start by isolating one of the variables in one equation and then replace that in the other equation, but in this case, we already have m isolated in the second equation, then we can replace that in the first equation to get:
h + m = 1000
h + (3*h) = 1000
Now we can solve this equation for h, and find the number of hats ordered.
4*h = 1000
h = 1000/4 = 250
There were 250 hats ordered.
Answer:
15(b)
16(a)
Step-by-step explanation:
15) 2x+10/2
Taking 2 common
2(x+5)/2
x+5
16) -2(-x-3)
(-2*-x)+(-2*-3)
2x+(6)
2x+6
Answer:
the answer is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 plus 1 is 1 1/2 then add another 1/2
