Answer:
x = 7, x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 intersecting chords, then
The product of the parts of one chord is equal to the product of the parts of the other chord.
(1)
27x = 9 × 21 = 189 ( divide both sides by 27 )
x = 7
(2)
12(3x - 5) = 120 ( divide both sides by 12 )
3x - 5 = 10 ( add 5 to both sides )
3x = 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 5
Answer:
Type A coffee in lbs = 97 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Type a = 4.55/lbs = x
type b = 5.70/lbs = y
Total in lbs = 147lbs
total in sales = 726.50
First,
x + y = 147 lbs -------------------equ 1
4.55x + 5.70y = lbs ------------ equ 2
<em>Multiply equ 1 by 4.55</em>
4.55x + 4.55y = 668.85 -------------equ 3
4.55x + 5.70y = 726.50 ------------equ 4
<em>Subtracting equ 3 from equ 4</em>
1.15y = 57.65
y = 50
<em>Substituting y = 50 into equ 1</em>
x + 50 = 147
x = 97
Answer:
y = 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition when x = 4, y = 8, that is
8 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )
2 = k, thus
y = 2x ← equation of proportion
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
24a-22= -4(1-6a)
24a-22= -4+24a
-24a -24a
0-22= -4
-22= -4
The initial expression is:
2x + 4(x - 2)
Replacing x by 3, we get:
2(3) + 4(3 - 2)
6 + 4(1)
6 + 4
10
The value of the expression is 10
