A + b + c = 168
b = 1/3c
a = b + c....a = 1/3c + c = 4/3c
now we sub
4/3c + 1/3c + c = 168
8/3c = 168
c = 168 * 3/8
c = 504/8
c = 63 <=== Carlos collected 63 lbs
a = 4/3c
a = 4/3(63)
a = 252/3
a = 84 <== Amy collected 84 lbs
b = 1/3c
b = 1/3(63)
b = 63/3 <== Bruce collected 21 lbs
b = 21
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Needs $500 Makes 7.50 and works 10 hours week.
7.50*10= $75.00 a week
500/75= 6.6 weeks or 6 weeks and 2/3 of a week. I'd round to 7 weeks.
75(x)=500 X= weeks needed.
75x=500 if you divide 500 by 75
x=20/3 or 6.6
Answer:
(3, 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3y = 27 → (1)
2x + y = 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
y = 10 - 2x → (2)
substitute y = 10 - 2x into (1)
5x + 3(10 - 2x) = 27
5x + 30 - 6x = 27
- x + 30 = 27 ( subtract 30 from both sides )
- x = - 3 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 3
substitute x = 3 into (2)
y = 10 - 2(3) = 10 - 6 = 4
solution is (3, 4 )

Answer: Choice C</h3>
Explanation:
In this answer choice, we effectively have two columns. In the first column is simply R and B, with R over B. This represents spinning either red (R) or blue (B).
Depending on the outcome, you branch the same outcomes from that.
So if you spin R, then you'll have R and B branch off that. Same idea applies to blue as well.
Something like choice D doesn't work because we have R show up twice at the very bottom.
