Answer:
42 books
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio percent for nonfiction is 0.78%
You multiply the amount of book by the percent that is nonfiction which give you the answer of 42.
54(0.78) = 42
X=amount of money woman has
n=pounds of sugar
Store #1: 8.5*n=x+30
Store #2: 8*n=x-25
multiply #2 by 17/16 to make coefficient of n same as in #1
2: 8.5*n=17/16(x-25)
Subtract #2 from #1
0=x+30-17/16(x-25)
x+30-17x/16 +25*17/16
x/16=30+25*17/16
x=480+425
=905 cents
=$9.05
Answer:
D. There is no x value as there is no solution to this system
Step-by-step explanation:
2x − 3y = 3 5x − 4y = 4
5x - 4y = 4 -4y = -5x + 4 y = 5/4x - 1
2x - 3(5/4x - 1) = 3
2x - 15/4x + 3 = 3
-7/4x = 0
x = 0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number of pepper plants, then (x + 6) = the number of tomato plants. Since the ratio of tomatoes to peppers is 5:2, we have the following:
5/2 = (x + 6)/x
2x + 12 = 5x
12 = 3x
4 = x = the number of pepper plants
I hope this helps you understand the question better!
