Question

Martin combined different amounts of orange juice, pineapple juice, and strawberry juice to make 1850 milliliters (ml) of fruit punch. The amount of orange juice combined was x ml. The amount of pineapple juice combined was 100 ml more than the amount of orange juice, and the amount of strawberry juice was half the amount of orange juice. This is represented in the equation below.
x + (x + 100) + one half x = 1850
What was the difference in the amounts of pineapple juice and strawberry juice Martin combined?

100 ml

450 ml

700 ml

950 ml

Answer 1

really I need help

Answer 2

solve for x:

x + (x + 100) + 1/2(x) = 1850

2x + 1/2 x + 100 = 1850

5/2 (x) = 1750

x = 700

Pineapple juice was (x+100) and strawberry juice was 1/2 (x) so:

x + 100 - 1/2 (x)

700 + 100 - 350

800 - 350

450 ml. is the difference.
