Answer:

  a = (4/3)(y+g)

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate 'a' term, then multiply by the reciprocal of its coefficient.

  -g+\dfrac{3}{4}a=y\qquad\text{given}\\\\\dfrac{3}{4}a=y+g\qquad\text{add $g$}\\\\\boxed{a=\dfrac{4(y+g)}{3}}\qquad\text{multiply by $4/3$}

A system of equations is shown below. y = –x – 3 5x + 2y = 9 What is the solution to this system?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

x=5\ and\ y=-8

The solution of the system can be given as (5,-8).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

y=-x-3

5x+2y=9

To solve the given system of equations:

Solution:

We will use substitution to solve the given system.

We will substitute the y values in terms of x from the equation y=-x-3 into the other equation to solve for x

Substituting y=-x-3 into 5x+2y=9.

We have:

5x+2(-x-3)=9

<em>Using distribution.</em>

5x-2x-6=9

<em>Combining like terms.</em>

3x-6=9

Adding 6 both sides.

3x-6+6=9+6

3x=15

Dividing both sides by 3.

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}

∴ x=5

<em>Plugging in x=5 into y=-x-3.</em>

We have,

y=-5-3

∴ y=-8

The solution of the system can be given as (5,-8).

Simon has a scale model of the Concorde airplane. The actual length of the Concorde is approximately 200 feet. If the ratio of t
Verizon [17]
The answer is:  "40 cm " .
_________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:
_________________________________________________________

\frac{200 ft }{ (x) cm} = \frac{5}{1}  ;

Solve for "x" (in "cm" ) ; 


→  5x = 200 * 1 ; 

→  5x = 200 ; 

Divide each side of the equation by "5" ; 
   to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ; 

→  5x / 5 = 200 / 5 ; 

to get:

→  x = 40 .

The answer is:  " 40 cm " .

After flooding damaged much of the crop, the cost of a head of lettuce jumped from $0.92 to $2.26. What percent of increase is t
mariarad [96]

Answer:

146%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent~change = \dfrac{new~price - old~price}{old~price} \times 100%

If the percent change is positive, it is a percent increase.

If the percent change is negative, it is a percent decrease.

Your numbers are

old price = $0.92

new price = $2.26

Plug in the numbers in the formula above and evaluate the expression.

percent change = ($2.26 - $0.92)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = ($1.34)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = 1.4565 * 100%

percent change = 146%

Since the percent change is a positive number, it is a percent increase.

Answer: The percent increase is 146%.
