You could get two different functions out of this:
<u>2x + 2y = 8</u>
1). <u> 'y' as a function of 'x'</u>
Subtract 2x from each side: 2y = -2x + 8
Divide each side by 2 : <em> y = -x + 4</em>
2). <u> 'x' as a function of 'y' :</u>
Subtract 2y from each side: 2x = -2y + 8
Divide each side by 2 : <em> x = -y + 4</em>
Those two functions look the same, but that's just because the original
equation given in the problem was so symmetrical. In general, they're
not the same function.
14% because 7/50 divided by 100 equals 14.
2 gallons divided between 9 people would equal 0.222222222 gallons per person
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.
when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:
21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24
