Starting from what I know (the difference between ribbons), I decided to go from the bottom and work my way up. I then noticed a pattern (each sum was three more of the previous one), and decided to keep my pattern of the three numbers but not have to do any major mental work and instead add three to the previous sum until I got to 38.
Since y=-3 you need to set up the equation
-20-(-3)
And all you have to do is simplify
So your answer will be
-17
Hope this helped :)
Have a great day
Answer:
It's significant because it's near the origin
Answer:
small=15 large=40
Step-by-step explanation:
x=large box
y=small box
55 = x + y
50x + 55y = 2825
50x + 55( 55 - x) = 2825
50x + 3025 - 55x = 2825
0 = 55x - 50 x + 2825 - 3025
0 = 5x - 200
200 = 5x
x=40
y = 15
