As\ is\ 120\%\ Bs\\\\120\%=1.2\to\frac{As}{Bs}=1.2\\\\\frac{As}{Bs}=\frac{12}{10}\to\frac{Bs}{As}=\frac{10}{12}\to\frac{Bs}{As}=\frac{5}{6}\\\\\frac{5}{6}\cdot100\%=\frac{500}{6}\%=83\frac{1}{3}\%\\\\100\%-83\frac{1}{3}\%=16\frac{2}{3}\%\\\\Answer:Bs\ income\ is\ 16\frac{2}{3}\%\ less\ than\ As\ income.

Solve the system of equations. 3x – 4y = 8 18x – 5y = 10 x= y =<br>​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution by substitution method

3x-4y=8

and 18x-5y=10

Suppose,

3x-4y=8→(1)

and 18x-5y=10→(2)

Taking equation (1), we have

3x-4y=8

⇒3x=4y+8

⇒x=( 4y+8)/ 3  →(3)

Putting x= (4y+8 )/3  in equation (2), we get

18x-5y=10

18( (4y+8) /3)  -5y=10

⇒24y+48-5y=10

⇒19y+48=10

⇒19y=10-48

⇒19y= -38

⇒y=- 38 /19

 ⇒y= -2→(4)

Now, Putting y=-2 in equation (3), we get

x=4y+8

x= (4(-2)+8) /3

 ⇒x= (-8+8)/ 3

 ⇒x= 0/ 3

 

⇒x=0

∴x=0  and  y= -2

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x + 5y = 10 and passes through the point (1, 3).
shusha [124]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange x + 5y = 10 into this form

Subtract x from both sides

5y = - x + 10 ( divide all terms by 5 )

y = - \frac{1}{5} x +2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{5}

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = - \frac{1}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (1, 3) into the partial equation

3 = - \frac{1}{5} + c ⇒ c = \frac{16}{5}

y = - \frac{1}{5} x + \frac{16}{5} ← equation of parallel line

Silvia buys 12 steaks that are each 34 of a pound. She spends a total of $90 on steaks. Complete each sentence. Silvia buys a to
scZoUnD [109]
I think in the first sentence, that should have been 3/4 instead of 34. Total amount of steak bought (lb)
                                        total amount = (3/4 lb/steak)(12 steak) = 9 lb
To find the total amount that Silvia spends for each pound of steak, we divide $90 by 9 and that will give us an answer of $10.
