The two numbers that add to make twenty and have a difference of 4 are 12 and 8
The length of pencil A is 5 cm
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the length of pencil A be "x"
Let the length of pencil B be "y"
Let the length of pencil C be "z"
<em><u>The total length of pencils A, B and C is 29 cm</u></em>
Therefore,
length of pencil A + length of pencil B + length of pencil C = 29
x + y + z = 29 ------------ eqn 1
<em><u>Pencil A is 11 cm shorter then pencil B</u></em>
x = y - 11 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Pencil B is twice as long a pencil C</u></em>
y = 2z
------ eqn 3
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 and eqn 3 in eqn 1</u></em>

<em><u>Substitute y = 16 in eqn 2</u></em>
x = 16 - 11
x = 5
Thus length of pencil A is 5 cm
2(4k+8)=10
8k+16=10 (she said 2k instead of 8k)
To continue solving, subtract 16 from both sides. That would give you 8k= -6. Then divide both sides by 8, and get -6/8 which equals -3/4.
Answer:
40 quarts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x =quarts of the 50% solution
so, according to the question
the typical mixture equivalent equation will be like this

so the answer will be 40 quarts of 50% solution should be added.
