Let's assume
total number of pieces in a cake is x
Gabe eats another fourth of the whole cake
so,
Gabe eats
cedric eats 3 pieces
so,
Cedric and Gade together eat
we are given
Cedric and Gabe eat 9 pieces cake together
so, we can set them equal
and we get
now, we can solve for x
Subtract both sides 3
Multiply both sides by 4
so,
total number of pieces are 24.........Answer
Answer:
6x-5y=4
6x+3y=30
Step-by-step explanation:
Move variable to the left
5y=6x-4
Reorder the terms
5y-6x=-4
Change the signs
-6x+5y=-4
Move variable to the left
3y=-6x+20
Reorder the terms
3y+6x=20
I think it is d=5 because when you add them all up and divide by 5 it is 5
Graph 2 because It’s looks like it’s 1/2
Let the both the parts be 'x' and 'y'
x>y
We know that 4x = 5y
so x = 5y/4
x + y = 54
Replacing x we get
(5y/4) + y = 54
(5y +4y)/4 = 54
9y = 216
y = 24
Replacing y in ' x+y = 54'
we get x = 30
Hence the larger part is 30 whereas the smaller part is 24
