The answer is x equals 24
you set up a proportion new over old
so for red cars 40 over 5
since we don’t know the new for blue cars we’ll use x
so x over 3
we then make them equal to each other
40 x
—- = —-
5 3
cross multiply, then we get
120=5x
isolate the x by dividing 5 from both sides to get 24
" The opposite of " could be the answer
C= chair cost
t= table cost
Create two equations with the given information. Solve for one variable in equation one. Substitute that answer in equation two. Then you can solve for the needed information.
3c+2t=$18
5c+6t=$48
3c+2t=18
Subtract 2c from both sides
3c=18-2t
Divide both sides by 3
c=(18-2t)/3
Substitute the value for c in equation two:
5c+6t=$48
5((18-2t)/3)+6t=48
(90-10t)/3+6t=48
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate fraction
(3)((90-10t)/3)+(3)(6t)=(3)(48)
90-10t+18t=144
90+8t=144
Subtract 90 from both sides
8t=54
Divide both sides by 8
t=$6.75 cost for table
Substitute the t value to solve for c:
3c+2t=18
3c+2(6.75)=18
3c+13.50=18
3c=4.50
c=$1.50 chair cost
Check:
5c+6t=$48
5(1.50)+6(6.75)=48
7.50+40.50=48
48=48
