235 people are at a summer camp. There are 35 more boys than girls, and 70 fewer adults than girls. How many people of each group are at the camp?

125 boys, 90 girls and 20 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys be x

Let the number of girls be y

Let the number of adults be z

If there are 235 people at the summer camp, then;

x + y+ z = 235 1

If there are 35 more boys than girls, then;

x = y + 35 2

If there are 70 fewer adults than girls then;

y = z - 70

z = y - 703

Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;

x + y+ z = 235 ..

(y+35)+y+(y-70) =235

3y -35 = 235

3y = 270

3y/3 = 270/3

y = 90

Since x = y + 35

x = 90 + 35

x = 125

Also z = y - 70

z = 90+70

z = 20

There are 125 boys, 90 girls and 20 adults

There are 90 girls, 125 boys, and 20 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of girls. How many boys were there?

x + 35

How many adults were there?

x - 70

We know that 235 people are at RSM summer camp. Use this to make an equation.

x + (x + 35) + (x - 70) = 235

x + x + 35 + x - 70 = 235

3x - 35 = 235

3x - 35 + 35 = 235 + 35

3x = 270

3x ÷ 3 = 270 ÷ 3

x = 90

x, x + 35, x - 70

90, 125, 20

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

answer: 12,000
