answer:number of cupcakes sold is 13  Number of cookies sold is 27  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Victor sold.  Let y represent the number of cookies that Jane sold.  Each cupcake sold for $2.25 and each cookie sold for $0.50. At the end of the day,  This mean Victor had 2.25x 0.5y = 42.75 - - - - - - - - - -1she sold 40 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means thatx y = 40Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes2.25(40 - y) 0.5y = 42.7590 - 2.25y 0.5y = 42.75- 2.25y 0.5y = 42.75 - 90- 1.75y = - 47.25y = - 47.35/-1.75y = 27x = 40 - yx = 40-27 = 13

You mix soda water, fruit punch concentrate, and ginger ale in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 5 to make fruit punch. How many pints of eac
EastWind [94]
So the ratio is 1 to 2 to 5
so basically 1 unit of soda water to 2 units of fruit punch to 5 units of ginger ale

total is 1+2+5=8 units

so 4 gallons=8 units
divide by 8
1/2 gallon=1 unit

soda water=1 unit=1/2 gallon
fruit punch=2 unit=1/2 times 2=1 gallon
ginger ale=5 unit=5 times 1/2=5/2=2 and 1/2 gallon

soda water=1/2 gallon
fruit punch concentrate=1 gallon
ginger ale=5/2 gallon or 2 and 1/2 gallon

Each of three colored cups covers one of three objects. 1) The red cup is somewhere to the left of the white cup. 2) The coin is
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Shell is under Red color cup

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 cups and 3 objects which they cover under them.

Taking into consideration (4) and (2) as they both describe the position related to bean

(4) Gray cup  →Bean (right)     (2) coin ← bean (left)  

that means coin can either under Gray cup or left to gray cup.

Now

(1) Red ← White (left)  (3) Shell → Gray  (right)

This means if we consider coin to be left of gray cup then we can't place shell to the left of gray cup as required in (3)

so coin will be under gray cup

on forming the Color of cups and the coin below them

C1             C2         C3

Red       Gray      White

 __           __          __

Shell        coin        Bean

So Shell is under Red color cup
