(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x

(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

x meters= 35

5x meters= 175

6x - 8 = 202

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5x + (6x - 8)= 412

12x - 8= 412

12x = 412 + 8

12x = 420

x= 35

5x = 35× 5

= 175

6x - 8= 6(35) - 8

= 210 - 8

= 202

Answer:

  (b)  (1, 1/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The "unit rate" is always the y-value for x=1 when the relationship is proportional (as it is here).

That point is not specifically shown on the graph. It would be (1, 1/6).

ipn [44]

Answer:

        8w² < 4w(150-w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Square area of  living  : w  · w  =  w²

Money spent : 8 · w²

Square area of  artichokes : (150 - w) · w    

Money earned : 4 · w · (150 - w)

Julia manages to save some money every week. That means that the money earned is bigger than the money spent ( the money spent is less than the money earned)

8 · w² < 4 · w · (150 - w)
