Assume Josh made X cupcakes; Alice made Y cupcakes; Tom made Z cupcakes.
Josh made 10 more cakes than Alice so,
X = Y + 10 ---- 1st Eqn.
Alice made 8 more than Tom so,
Y= Z+8 --- 2nd Eqn.
Total cakes = 62 so,
X+Y+Z = 62 ---- 3rd Eqn.
by solving three equations we get X= 30; Y= 20; Z=12.
So Tom made 12 cupcakes
Yes. It is equivalent to 3. Combine like terms
Hmmmm is not very clear if the 25% is just 25% of the original price, or of the reduced price, but let's assume is of the reduced price.
say the original price is "x", 20% off that, means the sale price is 80% of the original price, or (80/100) * x, or 0.8x.
then Linz shows up on the last day, and she's got 25% off from that price plus a beanie baby and a free garden hose.
so if the price is reduced by 25%, then the sale price is just 75% of whatever it was, but it was already reduced to 0.8x, what is 75% of 0.8x?
(75/100) * 0.8x, or 0.75 * 0.8x, which is 0.6x, now 0.6 * 100 is 60 to change it to percentage format, or 60% overall percentage reduction from the original price.
5x + 2 must be equal to 17. Subtract to from both sides, then divide both sides by 5 and x = 3. 3y - 6 must equal 21. Add 6 to both sides, then divide both sides by 3, and y = 9.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
-5*1+6*5=30 as the value doesn't support the equation
