Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: idk
First, divide both sides by 12 to get am alone
am=1/3
Now, divide both sides by m to get a alone
a=1/3 / m
Simplify
4ax+12-3ax=25+3a
ax+12=25+3a
ax-3a=25-12
a(x-3)=13
Answer:
30 red marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio is 2 red marbles for every 5 blue marbles then you would add them together to find out how many marbles are in one group.
2+5=7
There are 7 marbles in each group.
Now we have to find out how many total groups there are by dividing the total amount of marbles by the amount in each group.
105÷7=15
There are 15 groups of 7 marbles.
Looking back at the ratio, we know that the 15 groups each have 2 red marbles and 5 blue marbles. So if there is 2 red marbles 15 times (2 marbles in 15 groups) we would multiply.
2×15=30
There are 30 red marbles.
I hope that makes sense.
Answer:
The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
Mary has 15 coins with the total value of $1.75 if the coins are nickels and quarters how many of each kind are there
Let
x ----> the number of nickel coins
y ----> the number of quarter coins
Remember that


we know that
Mary has 15 coins
so
-----> equation A
The total value of the coins is $1.75
so
----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solution is the point (10,5)
therefore
The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5
