The ratio of green pepper plants to red pepper plants in joes garden is 2 to 7 if joe has 20 more red peppers plants than green pepper how many of each does he have

green = 8, red = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

green   :   red

  2x           7x

   y           y + 20

⇒

Since y = 2x, I can substitute "y" with "2x" in the second equation:

7x = 2x + 20

-2x  -2x        

5x  =        20

÷5           ÷5  

   x  =         4

green: 2x   = 2(4)   = 8

red: 7x   = 7(4)   = 28

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
