There were 820 orange buttons in a container. The number of orange buttons was 160 fewer than the number of yellow buttons and 2

denis-greek [22]

Answer: There are 3615 buttons

Step-by-step explanation:

From this situation we can write a system of equations if we tag the orange buttons with $o$ , the yellow buttons with $y$ , the green buttons with $g$ and the blue buttons with $b$ :

There were 820 orange buttons:

$o=820$ (1) Number of orange buttons

The number of orange buttons was 160 fewer than the number of yellow buttons:

$o=y-160$ (2)

The number of orange buttons was 210 more than the number of green buttons:

$o=g+210$ (3)

1/3 of the total number of buttons in the container were blue buttons:

If the total is the sum of the buttons of each color, we have:

$\frac{1}{3}(o+y+g+b)=b$ (4)

At this point we have our system with 4 equations and 4 unknowns.

Let's begin by substituting (1) in (2):

$820=y-160$ (5)

Isolating $y$ :

$y=980$ (6) Number of yellow buttons

Subsituting (1) in (3):

$820=g+210$ (7)

Isolating $g$ :

$g=610$ (8) Number of green buttons

Substituting (1), (6) and (8) in (4):

$\frac{1}{3}(820+980+610+b)=b$ (9)

Isolating $b$ :

$b=1205$ (10) Number of blue buttons

Now we can find the total number of buttons:

$o+y+g+b=820+980+610+1205=3615$ (11) This is the total number of buttons

Answer:

u = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

3 5

----- = ---------

u 10

Using cross products

3*10 = 5u

30 = 5u

Divide by 5

30/5 = 5u/5

6 = u

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Hatshy [7]

Answer: At time 0, there are 18 gallons of water. That gives you point (0, 18).This point is a dot on 18 on the y-axis. After 2 hour, the water went down 2 gallon. At hour 2, there are now 16 gallons left. This gives you point (1, 16).To plot it, start at the origin, (0, 0), go 2 unit right on the x-axis, and 16 units up on the y-axis, and place a dot there. Now connect the two dots and extend the line down to the right until you intersect the x-axis. You should intersect the x-axis at 10.
