Answer:

y = 30.555 and x = 19.444

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

x + y = 50 and

x / y = 7/11

use substitution taking

x + y = 50

x = 50 - y

then

x / y = 7/11 and from above substitute for x

(50 - y)/ y = 7/11

(50 - y) = 7y/11

11(50 - y) = 7y

550 - 11y = 7y

550 = 18y

y = 550/18 = 30.555 so

x + y = 50

x = 50 - y

x = 50 - 30.555 = 19.444

Mary buys a 10-meter spool of thread for sewing. She uses 210 centimeters. How much is left on the spool in centimeters?
Margaret [11]

100 cm = 1 meter

210 cm = 2.1 meters (multiply both sides by 2.1)

Mary uses 2.1 meters of thread so far, meaning she has 10-2.1 = 7.9 meters left

7.9 meters = (7.9 m)*(100 cm/1 m) = 790 cm

--------------------------------------

Alternate route:

10 meters = (10 m)*(100 cm/1 m) = 1000 cm

Mary uses 210 cm out of 1000 cm total, so she has 1000-210 = 790 cm left.

--------------------------------------

<h3>Answer: 790 cm</h3>
