Answer:
30 strawberry sundaes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.
3 sundaes will be strawberry.
4 sundaes will be choclate.
When you add 3 and 4 together, you get 7. This is your total ratio.
So 3/7 of the sundaes are strawberry.
And 4/7 of sundaes are choclate.
We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.
The total ratio we figured out is 7.
If the total sundaes is 70, and the total ration is 7. Then the total sundaes is 10 times bigger than the ratio.
This means we need to multiply the 3 strawberry sundaes and 4 choclate sundaes by 10.
3*10=30
4*10=40
So there are 30 strawberry sundaes and 40 choclate sundaes.
We need to find the strawberry sundae amount, so the answer is 30.
Hope this helps!
If we are eliminating x, we would multiply the 2nd equation by -5
5x + 18y = 23
x + 3y = 2....multiply by -5
-----------------
5x + 18y = 23
-5x - 15y = - 10 (result of multiplying by -5)
----------------add
0 + 3y = 13.....bye-bye x :)
Answer:
x=13,y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a system of equations

For equation 1,square all terms to reduce it
√x²+√y²=169
x+y=13
Make x the subject as required by the question to use substitution method
x=13-y
Plug x=13-y into eqn 2
3(13-y)+2y=39
39-3y+2y=39
39-y=39
y=39-39=0
Plug y=0 into equation 1
x+0=13
x=0
Answer:
72.4 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
Time taken by each person in the team = 18.1 seconds
Number of members in the team = 4
It is required to find the total time taken by the team to finish the race.
Thus, the time taken taken = 4 × 18.1 = 72.4 seconds
Hence. the team finished the race in 72.4 seconds.

Sounds like that to me but that is symbolically showing of that's what your teacher means as mathematical sentence
