Answer:
y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations given are
3x + y = 17 and 4x - y = 18
Now we will first take one equation
3x + y = 17
Then
y = 17 - 3x
Now replacing the value of y in the second equation we get
4x - y = 18
4x - (17 - 3x) = 18
4x + 3x - 17 = 18
7x = 35
x = 35/7
= 5
Putting the value of x in the first equation we get
3x + y = 17
(3 * 5) + y = 17
15 + y = 17
y = 17 - 15
y = 2
So the value of x is 5 and y is 2
184 milliliters of the first brand and 46 milliliters of the second brand
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x be the number of milliliters of the first brand in the final mixture
Since the chef requires 230 milliliters, 230 - x would be the milliliters of dressing of the second brand
Step 2:
The first brand contains 6% vinegar, and the second brand contains 11% vinegar
Hence we have,
x * 6/100 + (230-x) * 11/100 = 230 * 7/100
0.06 x + 25.3 - 0.11 x = 16.1
0.05x = 9.2 => x = 184
Hence the 184 milliliters of the first brand is to be used
Step 3 :
Quantity of the second brand to be used is 230 - x = 230 -184 = 46 milliliters.
Answer:
c = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
You're looking for a number so that when you use that number in place of x, you end up with 20.
f(x) = 3x - 7
f(c) = 3c - 7
20 = 3c - 7
Add 7
27 = 3c
Divide by 3
9 = c
To find cirfumfrence we use the formula C =

Soooo

= 3.14
r = 40 inches
So now we plug it in :P
C = 2 x 3.14 x 40 = 251.2
answer = B.) 251.2 inches
