Answer:

total amount of sweets=230

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio=8:5:10

total ratio=8+5+10

=23

Adrian=x

Charlie= x+20

Ben=1/2×(x+20)

Charlie's share

10/23×(x+20+x+(1/2×x+20))=x+20

10/23×(x+20+x+(x+20/2))=x+20

10/23×(x+20+x+x+20/2)=x+20

10/23×(2(x+20)+(2×x)+(x+20/2)/2=x+20

10/23×(2x+40+2x+x+20)/2=x+20

10/23×(2x+2x+x+40+20)/2=x+20

10/23×(5x+60)/2=x+20

50x+600/46=x+20

50x+600=46(x+20)

50x+600=46x+920

50x-46x=920-600

4x=320

4x/4=320/4

x=80

Total amount of sweet

x+x+20+1/2(x+20)

80+80+20+1/2(80+20)

180+1/2(100)

180+50

230

Rhonda has $13. She has one $5 bill, three $1 bills, and one other bill. Is a other bill a $1 bill or a $5 bill explain
morpeh [17]

Answer:

$5 bill

Step-by-step explanation:

If Rhonda has $13 and she has a $5 bill and 3 $1 bills, then she has

5 + 3(1) + x = 13

5 + 3 + x = 13

8 + x = 13

x = 5.

The last bill must be a $5 bill to equal the remaining $5.

You find it by multiplying each side of the triangle by the height (9) and adding the results together.

A(lateral) = 8 * 9.1 + 3 * 9.1 + 8 * 9.1
= 72.8 + 27.3 + 72.8
= 172.9

Create and solve a system of equations for the following scenario: Luke and Leia are selling hot dogs and hamburgers at a minor
mixas84 [53]

So x + y = 45, and 4x + 5y = 195. Get y by itself. Subtract x from both sides in the first equation to get y = 45 -x, and subtract 4x from the second equation to get 5y = 195 - 4x. Divide by 5 to both sides to get y = 39 - 4/5x. 39 - 4/5x = 45 - x. Add x to both sides to get 39 - 1/5x = 45. Subtract 39 from both sides to get -1/5x = 6. Divide by -1/5 to get x = -30, or 30. In the first equation, do 30 + y = 45. Subtract 30 from both sides to get y = 15. Check. 4(30) + 15(5) = 195, or 120 + 75 = 195.
