Alfred has 10 more tokens than Clarissa. Clarissa has twice as many tokens as Benji. They have 85 tokens altogether. How many tokens does each person have.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Alfred has 40 tokens

Clarissa has 30 tokens

Benji has 15 tokens

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's give each person a variable:

A for Alfred

C for Clarissa

B for Benji

Now, we can take what the question is saying and convert them into equations:

Alfred has 10 more tokens than Clarissa can look like this:

A = C + 10

Since Alfred has 10 more coins than Clarissa we can take C and add 10 to find how many tokens Alfred has.

Clarissa has twice as many tokens as Benji looks like this:

C = 2B

Since Clarissa has twice as many tokens as Benji we can multiply B (how many tokens Benji has) by 2.

Lastly, they have 85 tokens all together:

A + B + C = 85

We have these 3 equations:

A = C + 10

C = 2B

A + B + C = 85

Now, we can substitute some variables:

A = (2B) + 10    Since C is equal to 2B we can substitute 2B in for C in the first equation.

We have found what A equals, we can plug that in to the last equation:

(2B) + 10 + B + C = 85

We can also substitute the second equation into the third equation:

(2B) + 10 + B + 2B = 85

Combine like terms:

5B + 10 = 85

Solve

5B = 75

B = 15

This means that Benji has 15 tokens. Now we can find how much the other children have:

C = 2(15) = 30

Clarissa has 30 tokens

A = 30 + 10

A = 40

Alfred has 40 tokens.

Answer:

Alfred has 40 tokens

Clarissa has 30 tokens

Benji has 15 tokens

Checking the Answer

A + B + C = 85

40 + 15 + 30 = 85

85 = 85

I hope this helps!!

What is the solution set of this inequality? 3|p + 4| + 5 < 8 (–5, –3) (–3, 0) (0, –5) (3, 5)

Answers

Given:

The inequality is

[tex]3|p+4|+5<8[/tex]

To find:

The solution set for the given inequality.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]3|p+4|+5<8[/tex]

[tex]3|p+4|<8-5[/tex]

[tex]3|p+4|<3[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3.

[tex]|p+4|<1[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]-1<p+4<1[/tex]

Subtracting 4 from each side, we get

[tex]-1-4<p+4-4<1-4[/tex]

[tex]-5<p<-3[/tex]

The solution set of the given inequality is (-5,-3).

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Answers

Answer:

m = 8

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

By similar triangles

(m - 4) /8 = 8 / 2m             Cross multiply

2m(m - 4) = 64                  Expand the left

2m^2 - 8m = 64                Divide through by 2

m^2 - 4m = 32                   Subtract 32 from both sides.

m^2 - 4m - 32 = 0             Factor

(m - 8)(m + 4) = 0

m + 4 has no meaning in geometry. - numbers cannot be distances.

m - 8 = 0

m = 8

===================

By the same kind of similar triangles used in problem A we get

7 / x = x / 9

x^2 = 63

Just leave this as it is. We'll solve this by the Pythagorean Theorem.

x^2 + 9^2 = (n + 3)^2

63 + 81 = (n + 3)^2

144 = (n + 3)^2                   Take the square root of both sides

12 = n + 3                           Subtract 3 from both sides.

9 = n

the length and breadth of a rectangular plot is in the ratio of 4:3. if the perimeter is 140m, find the length and breadth of a rectangle

Answers

Answer:

l = 40 m and b = 30 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and breadth of a rectangle be 4x and 3x.

We know that,

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

P = 2(l+b)

140 = 2(4x+3x)

70 = 7x

x = 10

Length, l = 4x = 4(10) = 40 m

Breadth, b = 3x= 3(10) = 30 m

So, the length and breadth of a rectangle are 40 m and 30 m respectively.

What would be the solution to the system of equations: y= -x + 4 y= 3x

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of y is given in equation 2

Putting value of y = 3x in equation 1

Y = - x + 4

3x = - x + 4

Bringing like terms on one side

3x + x = 4

4x = 4

x = 4/4 = 1

Now putting value of x = 1 in equation 2

Y = 3x

Y = 3(1) = 3

1/3x + y = 6
-x - 2y = -9

help asap i’ll be giving a brainliest to the person with the correct answer

Answers

Answer:

All of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the graph and taking point x at 4 and y at around 300. This shows us the precise rate of the graph which is when x = 4, y is equal to 300.

Now if we substitute the x as 4 in any of the equations we will get values larger than 300. Therefore, all the equations have a greater rate of change.

y = 85(4) = 340 (Greater)

y = 50(4) + 150 = 350 (Greater)

y = 65(4) + 100 = 360 (Greater)
