Two equations
let c the calories in carrot
let h the <span>calories in </span><span>hershey's kisses
</span><span>
4c + 8h = 230 eq 1</span>
10 c + 7 h = 263 eq 2
to solve the solution we multiply eq 1 by 10
we multiply <span>eq 2 by 4
</span>
40 c + 80 h = 2300
40c + 28 h = 1052
we subtract the two equations we get
52 h = 1248
h= 24
and so in replacing h = 24 in the equation we get c = 9.5
Answer:
A. y<-3
Step-by-step explanation:
A common misconception in statistics is confusing correlation with causation. If two events are correlated, it merely means that they share the same behaviour over time, but it doesn't imply in any way that those event are related by a common cause, or even worse, that one implies the other.
You can find several (even humorous) counter examples online. For example, if you plot the number of reported pirates assault against the global temperature in the last years, you'll se that temperature is rising (unfortunately...) while pirates are almost disappearing.
One could observe this strong negative correlation and claim that hotter climate has solved the pirate issue. Of course this is a joke, but it explains why you shouldn't confuse correlation with causation.
If we divide 56 by 4 we get 14. Why by4? So that one number is 3 times the other So he had 14 balls that went into the green bags and 42 (56-14) that went into the red bags. We could just answer the question and say 14 but I think they want to know how many in each green bag.
14 and 42 don't work because they are not the same number of balls. What number is a common factor? 7 is,
We could have 2 green bags and split the 14 balls into 2 groups of 7 and with the remaining 42 - put them into 6 red bags of 7 each.
And so the answer to your question is:
7 ball in each bag = 2 bags are green, and 6 bags are red
14 balls + 42 balls = 56 bouncy balls
