Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
On her birthday, Natasha donated 4 toffees each to children of an orphanage and 20 chocolates to adults working here. Taking the total items distributed as x and the number of children as y. Write a linear equation in two variables for the above situation. Also find any three solutions for the equation formed.
Total item distributed = x
Number of children = y
Toffee donated to children = 4y
Toffee distributed to Adults = x - 4y
Number of adults working there = (x - 4y)/20
Number of adults working = x/20 - y/5
Let say Toffee distributed = 100 & Student = 15
=> Number of adults = 100/20 - 15/5 = 5 - 3 = 2
Let say Toffee distributed = 200 & Student = 25
=> Number of adults = 200/20 - 25/5 = 10 - 5 = 5
Let say Toffee distributed = 500 & Student = 75
=> Number of adults = 500/20 - 75/5 = 25 - 15 = 10
9 is the answered.........
