Kimberly scored a total of 35.08 points in four events fro her gymnastic competition.If she scored the same amount in each event,how many points did she score each?

Kimberly scores 8.77 points per event

Step-by-step explanation:

Total scores in four gymnastic events = 35.08 points

Total events = 4

If she scored the same amount in each event,how many points did she score each?

Kimberly points per event = Total scores in four gymnastic events /

Total events

= 35.08 points / 4 event

= 8.77 points per event

Kimberly scores 8.77 points per event

We need to use the information given from the question to help us make our systems of equations

We know that Blow pops cost $0.50 each

We also know that Snickers cost $0.60 each

She bought 30 total pieces of candy

She spent a total of $16.80

First, lets make the systems of equation for the amount of candy she bought

We would represent blow pops as "b", and snickers as "s"

We know that she bought 30 pieces of candy, so our equation would = 30

We add b and s to get 30, so our equation would be:

b + s = 30

Systems of equation for the cost:

Represent blow pops as "b", and snickers as "s" for this equation too

We know that Blow pops cost $0.50 each and that Snickers cost $0.60 each

We know she spent a total of 16.80 dollars, so the equation would = 16.80

You would add 0.50b and 0.60s to get 16.80

The equation would be

0.50b + 0.60s = 16.80

b + s = 30

0.50b + 0.60s = 16.80
