Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x is to 16    as    9 is to x

x/16 = 9/x     cross multiply

x^2 = 144

x =12

Marie, Shelia, and Martha bought snacks for a girl's sleepover. They each bought the items shown in the following table at the l
creativ13 [48]

Using a system of equations, it is found that the unit prices are:

  • $2.25 for a bag of chips.
  • $1.50 for a liter of pop.
  • $1.75 for a chocolate bar.

For the system:

  • x is the unit price of a bag of chips.
  • y is the unit price of liter of pop.
  • z is the unit price for a chocolate bar.

From the table, the equations are:

2x + 2y + z = 9.25

3x + 4y + z = 14.50

x + 3y + 3z = 12

Replacing the <u>first equation on the second and the third:</u>

z = 9.25 - 2x - 2y

3x + 4y + z = 14.50

3x + 4y + 9.25 - 2x - 2y = 14.50

x + 2y = 5.25

x = 5.25 - 2y

x + 3y + 3z = 12

x + 3y + 3(9.25 - 2x - 2y) = 12

-5x - 3y = -15.75

5x + 3y = 15.75

Since x = 5.25 - 2y:

5(5.25 - 2y) + 3y = 15.75

-7y = -10.5

y = \frac{10.5}{7}

y = 1.5

Then:

x = 5.25 - 2y = 5.25 - 2(1.5) = 2.25

z = 9.25 - 2x - 2y = 9.25 - 2(2.25) - 2(1.5) = 1.75

The unit prices are:

  • $2.25 for a bag of chips.
  • $1.50 for a liter of pop.
  • $1.75 for a chocolate bar.

B is the midpoint of AC. If Ab= x +5 and BC = 2x-11, find the measure of Ab.
LuckyWell [14K]

__________________________

Measurement of "AC" :

(x + 5) + (2x <span>− 11) ;
________________________

Find the measurement of "AB" [which is: "(x+5)" ]: 
______________________________________________
First, simplify to find the measurement of "AC" :
________________________________________
 </span>(x + 5) + (2x − 11) ;

=  (x + 5) + 1(2x − 11) ;

=   x + 5 + 2x − 11 ;

 → Combine the "like terms" ; 

   x + 2x = 3x ;
   
   5 − 11 = - 6 ;
______________
to get:  3x − 6 ; 
_______________
So,  (x + 5) + (2x − 11) =  3x − 6 ;
_______________________________
Solve for:  "(x + 5)"
_______________________________

We have: 
_______________________________

(x + 5) + (2x − 11) =  3x − 6  ;

Subtract:  "(2x − 11)" ;  from EACH SIDE of the equation ;
                                      to isolate "(x + 5)" on one side of the equation; 
                                      and to solve for "(x + 5)" ;
________________________________________________________
    →  (x + 5) + (2x − 11) − (2x − 11) =  (3x − 6) − (2x − 11) ;
  
         → (x + 5)  = (3x − 6) − (2x − 11) ;
_________________________________________________
  Note:  Simplify:  "(3x − 6) − (2x − 11)" ;

     →  (3x − 6) − (2x − 11)  ;
 
         =  (3x − 6) − 1(2x − 11) ;
 
         =   3x − 6 − 2x + 11 ;
__________________________
   →  Combine the "like terms" :
_____________________________
         +3x − 2x = 1x = x ;
  
          -6 + 11 = 5 ; 
_____________________________
To get:  x + 5 ; 

So we have:
______________________________
 x + 5 = x + 5 ; 
______________________________

So, x = all real numbers.

x = <span>ℝ </span>

Consider the system of equations. 3x + 2y = 16, x + y = 4 Which numerical values could you multiply the second equation by to el
andrezito [222]

Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2y=16

x+y=4 multiply by -2

-2x-2y=-8

3x+2y=16  ------a

-2x-2y=-8  -------b

Add equation a and b

(3x+-2x)+(2y+-2y) = 16+(-8)

x+0=8 (y has been eliminated)
