Answer:
64 cherries
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
There are 280 pieces of fruit in a fruit salad
There are twice as many raspberries as blueberries,
three times as many grapes as cherries,
and four times as many cherries as raspberries
We need to find out the number of cherries in the fruit salad
So,
Let us assume the blueberries be x
So, the raspberries be 2x
Cherries be 8x
And, grapes be 24x
Now
x + 2x + 24x + 8x = 280
35x = 280
x = 8
hence, the No of cherries in the salad
= 8 x
= 8(8)
= 64 cherries
Y=x^2
substitute the values into the original equation
0=4^2
0=16
No it does not satisfy the equation because 0 does not equal to 16
False true true false true false
