Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cockles be c and that of winkles be w.

From the first relation,

w = 2c ..........(I)

From the second relation, 6 winkles are accidentally split.

This in equation form means the following:

c/w- 6 = 3/5

By cross multiplication,

5c = 3(w - 6)...........(ii)

We know w = 2c , let’s substitute this into the second equation.

5c = 3(2c - 6)

5c = 6c - 18

Collecting like times, c = 18

And w = 2c = 2(18) = 36

Hence, there were initially 18 cockles and 36 winkles

Whats an equation slop 0.5, passes through(6,4)
4vir4ik [10]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies 0.5 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-4=0.5(x-6) \\\\\\ y-4=0.5x-3\implies y=0.5x+1

Would like to see the step-by-step how to solve this!
tiny-mole [99]

The solutions to the respective equations shown in the image are 220, 41, -52, 1.385 and 11

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

a) 23 + (-16) + 42 * 5 - (-3)

= 23 - 16 + 210 + 3 = 220

b) -6(12 - 15) + 23

= -6(-3) + 23 = 18 + 23

= 41

c) -50 + (-10) + (5 - 3)4

= -50 - 10 + 2(4) = -50 - 10 + 8

= -52

d) -4.5 (-0.53) + (-1)

= 2.385 - 1

= 1.385

e) 5 - 2 + 8

= 3 + 8

= 11

The solutions to the respective equations shown in the image are 220, 41, -52, 1.385 and 11
