Sharon wants to make key chains with different colored beads. each key chain will look the same. sharon will use a total of 20 green beads to make all her key chains. what is the number of red beads and the number of blue beads she will need to make all of the key chains?

Step-by-step explanation:

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.
