v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
<h3>
<u>Solution:</u></h3>
Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica
Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa
Given that,
Together, they have 32 stuffed animals
Therefore,
v + m = 32 --------- eqn 1
Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted animals as her friend Mariposa
Therefore,
Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)
v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2
Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has
Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
5 + 2m + m = 32
5 + 3m = 32
3m = 32 - 5
3m = 27
<h3>m = 9</h3>
Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2
v = 5 + 2(9)
v = 5 + 18
<h3>v = 23</h3>
Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
Answer:
<em> </em><em>a </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>b</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>c</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
here's your solution
=> 3a + 4b + 5c +(-2a) + b
=> solve for like term
=> 3a - 2a + 4b + b + 5c
=> a + 5b + 5c

Let <em>x</em> = 8.132132132...
Then 1000<em>x</em> = 8132.132132132...
Subtract <em>x</em> from 1000<em>x</em> to eliminate the fractional part:
1000<em>x</em> - <em>x</em> = 8132.132132132... - 8.132132132...
999<em>x</em> = 8132 - 8 = 8124
<em>x</em> = 8124/999 = 2708/333
Answer:
37.5 percent
!!
Step-by-step explanation:
250/974 = x/40,000...250 opposed to 974 total = x opposed to 40,000 total
cross multiply because this is a proportion
974x = 10,000,000
x = 10,000,000/974
x = 10266.94 rounds to 10,267 <==
