X + y = 46
x = y + 12
y + 12 + y = 46
2y + 12 = 46
2y = 46 - 12
2y = 34
y = 34/2
y = 17
x = y + 12
x = 17 + 12
x = 29
so ur 2 numbers are : 29 and 17
<span>x : y is equal to 12 : 8. These can be reduced or cancelled down to 3 : 2 in the same proportions. Therefore, when y is 12, you have to multiply the smallest value y can be by 6, and must do the same to the smallest x value to retain the proportions. x = 18 when y = 12.</span>
The common ratio looks like -2 (-11 * -2 =22) and the missing terms are -44 and 352. (22*-2=-44, -176*-2=352).
Answer:
28 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
8 x 3 = 24
24 + 4 = 28
Total no. of buttons = 300 + 700 + 1000
+ 500 = 2500
Possibility for a person to pick a pink button = 300/2500 = (3/25)%
Amount of pink buttons she can expect her friends to pick = 50(3/25) = 6
She can expect to make 6 pink barrettes.
