To solve it you have to distribute (multiply) the 4 to the x and the 2.Then you would have to subtract 8 by both sides and which it would cancel on the left side, then after you divide 4 by both sides and then u get you answer.
Z = x-y(3r)/y
z = x-y * 3r/y
Final answer: x = yz + 3yr
(-2, -1)
(3, 2)
formula:
y2 - y1
———-
x2 - x1
2 - - 1 3
——- = —
3 - - 2 5
1) In a dozen, there are 12. Since there are 5 dozen, you would multiply 12 by 5, which is 60.
So 5 dozen oranges would cost $60.
2) For this, I'm guessing you need a ratio. So, 2 : 5 for white: blue. When can put that down to 1 white. 1: 2.5. The question (I'm unsure of) is asking ?: 8.5. 8.5÷ 2.5 = 3.4. So you'll multiply the white side as well, 1×3.4=3.4. So 3.4.
3) You need to find what one juice box would cost. So since there were 12 in the pack, you divide the cost by 12.
5.40÷12= .45
Now they are asking for an eighteen pack, so multiply what one would cost by 18.
.45×18= 8.1
It would cost $8.10.
