Knowing that x varies directly with y, we know the basic skeleton of the equation is
y = mx.
To find
m, plug in the known coordinate
(8,10), where the
x-coordinate is
8 and the
y-coordinate is
10.
Then, plug in m to the equation to get
y = (5/4)x.
Finally, plug in the y-coordinate
18 to the equation and solve for x!
Your exact answer is
x = 72/5. However, if your teacher prefers decimals, then
x = 14.4Hope this helps!
Yes 2,1 is a solution of this problem
First we need the whole garden:
16 x 5 = 80
Now we need to fountain:
5 x 9 = 45
Now to find our answer:
80 - 45 = 35
So our answer is B. 35ft²
2x - 3y = 6
-3y = 6 - 2x
y = -2 + 2/3x
48 cups because there are 8 cups in a bottle and 8 times 6 is 48
