For 2 people, you can give 5 to one, and 5 to the other, equally split from 10
For 3 people, you can give each person 3 whole candies, and 1/3 of the remaining 1 candy that is left to split between three people (3 tiny pieces for the 3 people
And for 4 people, you can give each one 2 whole candies, and 1/2 of the remaining candies to all four people (2 candies, when split in half is 4 in total) !!
No he is not .500, .50 and .5 are all the same number.
To solve this problem, you first need to subtract 100,034-9,348. You do this because Lexi scored that many points LOWER than Rial. You then take the answer to that subtraction problem (90,696) and add 9,749 to that answer. You do this because Susie scored 9,749 MORE than Lexi. You should get 100,435. This is Susie's score, so your final answer is 100,435 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the y in the 1st equation with the 2nd equation.
7x + 10(2x + 9) = 36
7x + 20x + 90 = 36
27x + 90 = 36
3x + 10 = 4
3x = -6
x = -2
So now we can find y.
y = 2x + 9 = 2(-2) + 9 = (-4) + 9 = 5.
So x = -2, y = 5.
