Answer:
4 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time taken for them to have the same number of strawberries be x minutes.
<u>Initially</u>
Ruby: 10 strawberries
Sapphire: 30 strawberries
<u>After x minutes</u>
Ruby: (10 +3x) strawberries
Sapphire: (30 -2x) strawberries
Since we let x minutes be the amount of time that has passed when they have the same amount of strawberries,
10 +3x= 30 -2x
Bring all x terms to one side, constant to the other:
3x +2x= 30 -10
Simplify:
5x= 20
Divide both sides by 5:
x= 20 ÷5
x= 4
∴ It will take 4 minutes.
Answer:
-80
Step-by-step explanation:
We have: -6 =
+ 4. In order to solve for x, we need to isolate it; in order to isolate x, we have to "undo" order of operations.
The regular order of operations is PEMDAS: parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.
Here, since we're solving for x, we need to go backwards. So, first, subtract 4 from both sides:
-6 - 4 =
+ 4 - 4 ⇒ -10 = 
Then, multiply by 8 on both sides:
-10 * 8 =
* 8 ⇒ x = -80
Thus, x = -80.
Hope this helps!
