What we know: one part of candy costs $6 per kg
another part of candy costs $4.50 per kg
To get a 15kg candy, lets add 6 and 4.5
6+4.5=10.5
Add 4.5 to 10.5
4.5+10.5=15
So, We need 2 kg of the $4.50 candy, and 1 kg of the $6.00 candy.
No, because in the first one the 4 is negative, in the second it is positive
Answer: 7 packs of gum.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the total amount of the purchase is $8.82 and the individual price is $1.26, to find out how many packs Kareem purchased, we need to divide the total amount spent ($8.82) by the amount of each pack ($1.26), so:
8.82 ÷ 1.26 = 7
So, Kareem bought 7 packs of gum.
Hi again!
2x - y = 80
5y = x
P.S. Are you struggling with Algebra, equations and inequations....my advice to you is to start using Khan Academy. It will help you a lot!
Ok stop talking and let's get to work!
We need to solve 2x - y = 80 for y
2x - y = 80
-y = 80 - 2x
Multiply both sides by -1 because y cannot be negative
-y * -1 = -1(80 - 2x)
y = 2x - 80
Now we can substitute 2x - 80 for y in 5y = x
5y = x
5(2x - 80) = x
Use the distributive property
(5)(2x) + (5)(-80) = x
10x - 400 = x
Add -x on both sides
10x - 400 - x = x - x
9x - 400 = 0
Add 400 on both sides
9x - 400 + 400 = 0 + 400
9x = 400
Divide both sides by 9
9x/9 = 400/9
x = 400/9
To find y, we can substitute 400/9 for x in y = 2x - 80
y = 2x - 80
y = 2(400/9) - 80
y = 800/9 - 80
y = 800/9 - 80/1
y = 800/9 + -720/9
y = (800 - 720)/9
y = 80/9
Thus,
The answers are: y = 80/9 and x = 400/9

Answer:
Mode = 22 Median = 22.66* Range = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
So there is actually 3 different types of averages. The most common answer will be the median, thats the one where you add up all the numbers, then subtract by the number of numbers.
