Let us take the second equation first
2a + 2b = 6
Dividing both sides by 2 we get
a + b = 3
a = 3 - b
Putting the value of a in the first equation we get
3a + 4b = 9
3(3 - b) + 4b = 9
9 - 3b + 4b = 9
b = 9 - 9
= 0
Now putting the value of b in the second equation we get
a + b = 3
a + 0 = 3
a = 3
So the value of the unknown variable a is 3 and the value of the unknown variable b is 0.
Answer:
6.12
1.39
4.12
12
Step-by-step explanation:
If y ∝ x, then y = kx.
So, the constant of proportionality is given by 
Case 1:
$18.36 for 3 pizzas
Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 
Case 2:
$4.17 for 3 pounds of bananas.
Hence, the constant of proportionality is 
Case 3:
$16.48 for 4 pounds of potatoes.
Hence, the constant of proportionality is 
Case 4:
2 cups of flour to make 24 cookies.
Hence, the constant of proportionality is 
(Answer)
Answer: 12
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that , the ceiling function y = [x] is also known as the least integer function that gives the smallest integer greater than or equal to x.
For example : For x= 1.5
y = [1.5] =2
For x= 3.64
y = ⌊3.64⌋=4
The given function :
Then, for x= 5.9 , we have
[since [3.9]=4 (least integer function)]
Therefore, the value of f(5.9) is 12
Its not a negative number but a positive number
