The coefficient 7 means that the length is 7 times the width

<h3>How to interpret the coefficient?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Width = x

Length = 7x

Area = 7x^2

We have:

Length = 7x

Substitute Width = x in Length = 7x

Length = 7 * Width

This means that the length is 7 times the width

Solve the simultaneous equations<br> 4x + 3y = 20<br> 4x + 2y = 14

fiasKO [112]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline{ \underline{ \text{Given}}} :$

$\tt{4x + 3y = 20........... \text{ equation \: ( \: i \: )}}$
$\tt{4x + 2y = 14.......... \text{equation \: (ii)}}$

$\underline{ \text{USE \: ELIMINATION \: METHOD}} :$

Subtract equation ( ii ) from equation ( i ) :

Remember that the sign of each term of the second expression changes i.e equation ( i ) now becomes -4x -3y = -20

$\tt{ \cancel{4x }+ 2y = 14}$

$\tt{ \cancel{ - 4x} - 3y = - 20}$

__________________

$\tt{ - y = - 6}$

⟿ $\tt{ \boxed{ \tt{y = 6}}}$

Again , Substituting the value of y in equation ( ii ) :

⟿ $\tt{4x + 2 \times 6 = 14}$

⟿ $\tt{4x + 12 = 14}$

⟿ $\tt{4x = 2}$

⟿ $\boxed{ \tt{x = \frac{1}{2}}}$

$\red{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer : x = \frac{1}{2 } \: and \: y = 6}}}}$

Are the ratios 25/45 and 15/27 proportional? show your work, explain

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

They are proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply, if the results are the same, they are proportional. If not, well then they're not proportional.

25 × 27 = 675

45 × 15 = 675

They have the same result

They are proportional
