Answer:

$750

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two people who won prize money and the total amount won is $2,350, we can set up an equation based on the verbal descriptions to assign a variable and solve.

Let 'x' = the amount won by the runner-up

Since the winner won '$100 more than twice the amount won by the runner-up':  winner = 2x + 100

The sum of the amount is $2,350, so:

x + (2x + 100) = 2350 or 3x + 100 = 2350

Subtract 100 from both sides:  3x + 100 - 100 = 2350 - 100 or 3x = 2250

Divide by 3 on both sides: 3x/3 = 2250/3

Solve for x:  x = $750

A basket contains 14 white eggs, 15 brown eggs, and 11 lemons. Taylor is in a hurry to make breakfast and picks something from t
guajiro [1.7K]
Okay so probability is just percentage of a whole, right?

So you have 14 White Eggs + 15 Brown Eggs + 11 Lemons.

Add all those numbers together and you get your whole.

14 + 15 = 29    29+11 = 40

40 is your whole. 

So because you want to know how likely it is to pick up an egg, you would follow these steps.

100/40 = 2.5 (For each part of the 40, it is worth 2.5 percent.)

2.5 x 29 = 72.5

Your probability of picking an egg out of the bask is 72.5 percent or 72.5 out of 100.

Suppose you have 20 coins that total $3.00. Some coins are nickels and some are quarters. Which of the following pairs of equati
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

n + q = 20

.05n + .25q = 3.00

5n + 25q = 300

 n + q = 20

5n + 25q = 300

-5n - 5q = -100

20q = 200

q = 10 quarters

n + 10 = 20

n = 10 nickels

(10 nickels, 10 quarters)
