The number of representatives is 160 less than five times the number of senators. there are a total of 560 members. find the number of senators and the number of representatives

The number of Senators are 120 and number of Representatives are 440.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total number of members = 560

Solution,

Let the number of Senators be 'x'.

Since, the number of representatives is 160 less than five times the number of senators.

Framing the above sentence in equation form,we get the number of Representative.

So, number of Representative =

Now, Total number of members is the sum of total number of Senators and total number of representative.

Total number of members = Total number of Senators + Total number of representative

On substituting the values, we get;

Total number of Senators = 120

So, number of Representative =

Thus the number of Senators are 120 and number of Representatives are 440.

-2

7 - 9 = -2

reversed:

-2 + 9 = 7

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
