Question 422047: A bat ate 1050 dragon flies on four consecutive nights. Each night she ate 25 more than on the night before. How many did she eat each night? Solve algebraically Answer by emargo19(101) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let it be First night x amt of bats
2nd night x+25
3rd night x+50
4th night x+75
x+x+25+x+50+x+75=1050
4x=900
x=225
First night=225
2nd night 225+25=250
3rd night=225+50=275
4th night 225+75=300
Check:225+250+275+300=1050
