Answer:
- 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- t = the number of taffy bags
- c = the number of caramel bags
- Number of taffy's are 5 more than caramel bags
- Taffy bags weigh 8 ounces and caramel bags weigh 16 ounces
- Total weight is 400 ounces
<u>Equations:</u>
- t = c + 5 (the difference in number of bags)
- 8t + 16c = 400 (the weight of the bags)
<u>Simplify the second equation by dividing all terms by 8:</u>
<u>Substitute t and solve for c:</u>
- c + 5 + 2c = 50
- 3c = 50 - 5
- 3c = 45
- c = 45/3
- c = 15
<u>Find the value of t:</u>
<u>Answer:</u>

Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
x=blue
y=white
x+y=40
30x+20y=920
30(x+y=40) ; 30x+30y=1200___[1]
30x+20y=920 ; 30x+20y=920___[2]
[1]-[2] : 30x+30y-30x-20y=1200-920
10y=280
y=28

Answer:
The independent variable is m, while the dependent variable is t.
Step-by-step explanation:
- What is the independent variable?
An independent variable is a variable that does not rely on another variable to change its outcome. In this case, the variable 'm' does not rely on the ride's total cost.
- What is the dependent variable?
The dependent variable is a variable that depends on another variable to give its amount. In this case, 't' is the dependent variable, because it depends on how many miles were driven, in order to provide the correct answer.
- Write an equation representing this relationship:
t = $6 + ($1.50 x m)
- Complete the table to show the total cost for riding 3 to 10 miles:
3 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $10.50 = $6 + ($1.50 x 3)
4 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $12 = $6 + ($1.50 x 4)
5 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $13.50 = $6 + ($1.50 x 5)
6 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $15 = $6 + ($1.50 x 6)
7 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $16.50 = $6 + ($1.50 x 7)
8 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $18 = $6 + ($1.50 x 8)
9 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $19.50 = $6 + ($1.50 x 9)
10 miles: t = $6 + ($1.50 x m) or $21 = $6 + ($1.50 x 10)
answer : the BC is measure by 4, and also if you wanna add this the AB is measure by 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
45/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can interpret the question to have two equation which can be solve simultaneously
a+b=7------------(1)
a-b=2------------(2)
From eqn(2) make a subject of formula
a=2+b--------(3)
Substitute the (3) into eqn(1)
a+b=7------------(1)
2+b+b=7
2b=7-2
2b=5
b=5/2
From equation (3) substitute value of b to find a
a=2+b--------(3)
a= 2+5/2
a=9/2
Then What is the value of a x b ?
9/2× 5/2
=45/4
