Answer:
387 contains 80 and 8 x 10 = 80
Problem 2
Plot point L anywhere that isn't on segment JK. Draw a line through point L. I find it helps to make the lines parallel.
Next, use a compass to measure the width of segment JK. Keeping this same width, transfer the nonpencil end of the compass to point L. Draw an arc that crosses the line through L.
Mark this intersection point M. Lastly, use a pen or marker to form segment LM and erase everything else of that line.
======================================================
Problem 3
The ideas of the previous problem will be used here. We copied segment JK to form congruent segment LM. So JK = LM.
The same steps will be used to form segment GN where GN = EF. In other words, segment GN is a perfect copy of segment EF.
If you repeat these steps again, you'll get another segment of the same length. This segment goes from point N to point H. So NH = GN = EF
Then we can say,
GH = GN + NH
GH = EF + EF
GH = 2*EF

Answer:
the solution is the whole line y = -x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
both equations are identical
2y = 14 - 2x
=> y = 7 - x
which is exactly the same information as y=-x+7
so, there is no single crossing point. they are exactly covering each other. what "remains" is simply the whole line.
Answer:
Number of pounds of cashews = x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y = 19.04 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Number of pounds of cashews = x
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y
The nut shack sells cashews for $6.00 per pound and Brazil nuts for $5.00 per pound. How much of each type should be used to make a 34 pound mixture that sells for $5.44 per pound
Our system of equations is given as:
x + y = 34...... Equation 1
x = 34 - y
6x + 5y = 34 × 5.44
6x + 5y = 184.96.......Equation 2
Ww substitute : 34 - y for x in Equation 2
6(34 - y) + 5y = 184.96
204 - 6y + 5y = 184.96
Collect like terms
- 6y + 5y = 184.96 - 204
-y = -19.04
y = 19.04 pounds
Solving for x
x = 34 - y
x = 34 - 19.04
x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of cashews = x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y = 19.04 pounds
