Answer:
D. 116
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the grasshoppers with a white marking be 2x.
Let the grasshoppers without a white marking be 3x.
2x + 3x = 290
5x = 290
x = 290 / 5
x = 58
The grasshoppers with a white marking
= 2x
= 2 ( 58 )
= 116
Let's use the "elimination by addition/subtraction" method to solve this system for x and y.
<span> -8x=72-16y
4x=-92+16y <= Mult. all 3 terms by 2: 8x = - 184 + 32y
Now combine the following, column by column:
</span><span> -8x= 72-16y
</span>8x = - 184 + 32y
-----------------------
0 = -112 + 16y. Solving for y, 16y = 112, and y = 7.
Now subst. 7 for y in either of the original equations and calculate x:
<span>4x=-92+16(7) => 4x = -92 + 112 = 20. Then x = 5.
Solution is 5, -7 (or, better written) (5, - 7).</span>
Answer:
B. 81 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
If we plug everything into the equation it should look like this:
Then we would subtract 1 from both sides, then we are left with <em>w:</em>
