Answer:
4 ounces of corn and 4 ounces of squash
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S be the no. of ounces of squash
Let C be the no. of ounces of corn
C》2 --> (A)
S》C --> (B)
Total protein 》 3
½C + ¼S》3 --> (C)
Solve A and C simultaneously
½(2) + ¼S = 3
¼S = 2
S = 8
C = 2, S = 8
Solve B and C simultaneously
½S + ¼S = 3
¾S = 3
S = 4
C = 4, S = 4
Three possible extreme combinations
C = 2, S = 8: Total = 10
C = 4, S = 4: Total = 8
Minimum is 8 ounces
Simply substitute x for -3 and y for -5, creating the equation shown below:
-6 (-3 - 2(-5) )
Now that you have your values set up, now you can do the math by starting off with Multiplying -2 by -5, which will get you 10.
Now that you have the parenthesis simplified in the parenthesis, you can use the distributive property by multiplying all the numbers with -6, like so:
-6(-3+10)= 18 - 60, which simplifies to -42, in which (A) is your answer.
I believe it's 5 to 9 since out of 9 games they win 5 and lose 4. This doesn't account for draws or anything, though.
Answer:
a = -15, b = -.5, c = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3a = -5 --> multiply each side with 3 --> a = -15
12 - b = 12.5 --> subtract 12 from both sides --> -b = .5 --> multiply each side with -1 to get b positive --> b = -.5
.1 = -10c --> multiply each side with -10 --> c = -1
