Answer:
x=8
y=16
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+2y=48
3x+y=40
Ther is many ways to solve this, one of them is clearance:
WE CLEAR AN UNLOCKED (X) AND REPLACE IT IN THE OTHER
x= (40-y)/3
2[(40-y)/3] +2y=48
(80-2y)/3 +2y=48
(80-2y+6y)/3=48
80+4y=48(3)
4y=144
y= 144/4
y=16
x=(40-y)/3
x=(40-16)/3
x=24/3
x=8
The pot can hold 1/3 more "of the way." Then 1/3 of 5 1/2 quarts is:
(1/3)(11/2) = 11/6 quarts. The pot can hold 11/6 quarts total.
Answer:
a) the slope is 2/-1 or just -2
b) the slope is 1/1 or just 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find slope (rise/run) by picking a point on the graph. For example on question a I chose the point (-2, 1) i then counted how far my run was, which is 2, and my rise (or how far down it went) was -1. Therefore my slope was 2/-1 or just -2.
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the common difference, you subtract a term from the term after it. For example, in the problem, you can subtract 13 from 6:
6 - 13 = -7
To check you can do the same thing with other consecutive numbers in the sequence like:
-1 - 6 = -7
