For this case, we must simplify the following equation:

$6x-7y = 2 (x + 10y)$

We apply distributive property to the terms of the parenthesis on the right side of the equation:

$6x-7y = 2x + 20y$

We subtract "2x" on both sides of the equation:

$6x-2x-7y = 2x-2x + 20y\\4x-7y = 20y$

We add "7y" to both sides of the equation:

$4x-7y + 7y = 20y + 7y\\4x = 27y$

We clear one of the variables:

$y = \frac {4x} {27}$

Answer:

$y = \frac {4x} {27}$

the Royal fruit company produces two types of fruit drinks. the first type is 20% pure juice,the second type is 100% pure fruit

skad [1K]

30 pints of first type and 130 pints of second type drinks must be used to make the mixture.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Lets assume, the amount of first type drink is $x$ pints.

As the total amount of the mixture is 160 pints, so the amount of second type drink $= (160-x)$ pints.

The first type is 20% pure juice, the second type is 100% pure fruit juice and the mixture is 85% pure fruit juice. So the equation will be .....

$0.20x+1.00(160-x)= 0.85*160\\ \\ 0.20x+160-x=136\\ \\ -0.80x= -24\\ \\ x=\frac{-24}{-0.80}=30$

So, the amount of first type drink is 30 pints and the amount of second type drink is (160-30)pints =130 pints.

timur paid $4.50 to enter the fair. he then bought a pretzel for $1.50 and played a game $1. last he rode a roller coaster for $

Soloha48 [4]

X-(4.5+1.5+1+3)= 8
x-10=8
+10. +10
x= 18

He took $18 to the fair. You take his original amount and subtract the things he paid for/bought to get what he came home with. I hope it helps!

Consider the following functions. f={(−4,−1),(1,1),(−3,−2),(−5,2)} and g={(1,1),(2,−3),(3,−1)}: Find (f−g)(1).

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtraction of functions has the property:

(f−g)(1) = f(1) - g(1)

f={(−4,−1),(1,1),(−3,−2),(−5,2)} has (1,1) means that f maps 1 to 1, therefore f(1) = 1

g={(1,1),(2,−3),(3,−1)} has (1,1), means that g maps 1 to 1, therefore g(1)=1

As a Result, since (f−g)(1) = f(1) - g(1), we have (f−g)(1) = 1-1=0
