Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1
Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2
Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3
• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2
(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14
6y = 14 – 3/2
6y = 25/2
y = 25/12
• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3
x = (25/12 + 3/2)
x = 43/12
Answer:
4.25 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
100 / 5 = 20
85 / 20 = 4.25
4.25 grams of pure drug are in 85 milliliters of a solution.
I don’t think it is, sorry I’m not 100% sure, good luck though
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 20 yards of ribbon in total. Need to make 2 yards each.
To find out how many yards you need to cut, divide:
20 / 2 = 10
So, you need to make 10 cuts for the 20 yards.
Hope this helped.
