Find variable values for two variables in an equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
never [62]3 years ago
5 0

Simplifying

2x + 3y = 12

Solving

2x + 3y = 12

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3y' to each side of the equation.

2x + 3y + -3y = 12 + -3y

Combine like terms: 3y + -3y = 0

2x + 0 = 12 + -3y

2x = 12 + -3y

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 6 + -1.5y

Simplifying

x = 6 + -1.5y

A scientist removed a sample of 39.1 grams of a chemical from a container. The sample was 5 3/4 grams less than 3/10 of the tota
Oksanka [162]

The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:

x: the total mass of the chemical in the container

y: a sample of a chemical from a container

We have the following equation:

y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4

Then, for y = 39.1 we have:

39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4

Clearing x:

(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4

(3/10) x = 44.85

x = (10/3) * (44.85)

x = 149.5 grams

Answer:

the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:

x = 149.5 grams.

2. The ratio of boys to girls in the school
andrew11 [14]
Since the ratio is 3:4, and 12/4 is 3 than you do 3x3 and get 9 so the answer is 9:12 or 9 boys and 12 girls. To check your answer, you can do 3/4 (for 3:4) and that is 0.75. If you do that with 9:12 you also get 0.75.
