Country a produces about four times the amount of diamonds in carats produced in country b. if the total produced in both countries is 25 comma 000 comma 000 carats, find the amount produced in each country.

Country A produces 20,000,000 & Country B produces 5,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

amount of diamonds produced by country A be x

and

amount of diamonds produced by country B be y

Since, Country A produces 4 times that of Country B, we can write:

x = 4y

Also, both countries produces a total of 25,000,000 carats, so we can write:

x + y = 25,000,000

Now, we need to find x and y. Putting 1st equation into 2nd equation, we get equation in y. Then we solve for y:

x + y = 25,000,000

4y + y = 25,000,000

5y = 25,000,000

y = 25,000,000/5

y = 5,000,000

And now, x = 4y, so x = 4(5,000,000) = 20,000,000

So Country A produces 20,000,000 & Country B produces 5,000,000 diamond carats

the answer is d

step-by-step explanation:

y+3=-4(x-2)

y+3=-4x+8

  -3         -3  

y=-4x+5
