(4,-5) let me know if im wrong if im right plzeee give me brainliestt
He was 21 in 1980,
There are twelve years in between them all so you subtract 36 from 78 and since he was double as old as Nancy, and Manual was the same age as her, you would divide 42 into two parts, Ric and the 10.5 year olds, and Ric would be 21 in 1980.
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.
