Answer: 1.8
Step-by-step explanation: I’m not entirely sure about this, but it probably is 1.8 because I don’t think the slant would change the volume, though I may be wrong
Sometimes it will, and sometimes it won't.
I reason as follows:
(21 + x) + (30 + 2x) = 51 + 3x has an 'x' term
(42 + x) + (30 - x) = 72 has no 'x' term.
Let r, g and b represent red, green and blue.
r+g+b = 74
r=g-1
b=r+g
Again, r+g+b = 74. Let's substitutte r+g for b: r+g+(r+g) = 74.
Next, let's eliminate r. Use r=g-1. Then g-1 + g + g-1 + g = 74
Combining the g terms, 4g - 2 = 74 => 4g = 76 => g = 19
Recall that r=g-1
and
b=r+g
Find r. If r=g-1, and g=19, then r = 19-1=18
Find b: b = r+g = 18+19=37
So there are 37 blue candies, 18 red candies and 19 green candies.
Check: 37+18+19=74 ??? Yes.
Let the total be x
1/6x=3
x/6=3
x=18
therefore Ramal's stamp has 18 pages
