Marked(10)/total = 3/20 (from sample)
total/10 = 20/3 (inverting the above proportion)
total = 10•20/3 = 200/3 ≈ 67
A. 2x+y=25; x+y=20
x represents cheese wafers and y represents chocolate wafers.
B. I will choose elimination since there is y and y. I can multiply one equation by -1 to get y and -y, which cancels out.
2x+y=25
-x-y=-20
Add equations
x=5
Plug x in
5+y=20
y=15
Final answer: 5 cheese wafers, 15 chocolate wafers
