Since the question is using the baby as a reference for much the male and female eats. Treat baby as the variable or x
So 3x+2x+x=181.5lb
6x=181.5lb
x=30.25lb.
female lb.=2×30.25=60.5lb of bamboo
hopefully that helps.
Answer:
13 and 44
Step-by-step explanation:
let x and y be the 2 numbers with y < x , then
x - y = 31 ( add y to both sides )
x = y + 31 ( subtract 31 from both sides )
x - 31 = y → (1)
4y = x + 8 → (2)
substitute y = x - 31 into (2)
4(x - 31) = x + 8
4x - 124 = x + 8 ( subtract x from both sides )
3x - 124 = 8 ( add 124 to both sides )
3x = 132 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 44
substitute x = 44 into (1)
44 - 31 = y , then
y = 13
the 2 numbers are 13 and 44
