Answer:
m = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
2m + -4 = 10
Reorder the terms:
-4 + 2m = 10
Solving
-4 + 2m = 10
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 2m = 10 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 2m = 10 + 4
2m = 10 + 4
Combine like terms: 10 + 4 = 14
2m = 14
Divide each side by '2'.
m = 7
Simplifying
m = 7
A should be the right answer. Hope this helped!
Hi there!
PART A:
The system of equations we would use would be:
x + y = 22 (amount of items)
3x + 1y = 30 (cost)
Variables:
x = the amount of strawberry wafers bought at the price of $3
y = the amount of chocolate wafers bought at the price of $1
PART B:
To solve, we'll use substitution because we can easily isolate a variable using the first equation.
Work:
x + y = 22 (first equation)
y = 22 - x (isolating a variable)
3x + 1y = 30 (second equation)
3x + (22 - x) = 30 (substituting into the second equation)
2x + 22 = 30 (simplifying)
2x = 8 (subtracting)
x = 4 strawberry wafers
4 + y = 22 (substituting x into the first equation to solve for y)
y = 18 chocolate wafers
ANSWER:
They bought 4 strawberry wafers and 18 chocolate wafers.
Hope this helps!! :)
