Question

there are 20 beads in a box, some black and some white; 6 more black than white. How many black, How many white? (first you make 2 equations using X and Y and then solve it)​

Answer 1

Answer: Black beads=13

               White beads=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Black beads: y(x+6)

White beads: x

x+6=y

x+(x+6)=20

2x+6=20

2x=20-6

2x=14

x=7

white beads=7

black beads=x+6=7+6=13
