Since 12 cost $27, you can use compatible numbers to make it ~$28. So, then for 6, it would cost $14 because you just halve everything. Is that what you are getting at?
25/100=1/4
a) you bought 1 1/4 pound of ham
b) $6.50
1.25 x $5.20=$6.50
2y - x = 5
x^2 + y^2 - 25 = 0
x = 2y - 5
(2y-5)^2 + y^2 - 25 = 0
(2y-5)(2y-5) + y^2 - 25 = 0
4y^2 - 20y + 25 + y^2 - 25 = 0
5y^2 - 20y = 0
y = 0 , y = 4
x = 2y - 5 , when y = 0
x = - 5
x = 2y - 5 , when y = 4
x = 8 - 5
x = 3
Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for y:
y + 3 = 9 - y
Add y to both sides:
y + y + 3 = (y - y) + 9
y - y = 0:
y + y + 3 = 9
y + y = 2 y:
2 y + 3 = 9
Subtract 3 from both sides:
2 y + (3 - 3) = 9 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:
2 y = 9 - 3
9 - 3 = 6:
2 y = 6
Divide both sides of 2 y = 6 by 2:
(2 y)/2 = 6/2
2/2 = 1:
y = 6/2
The gcd of 6 and 2 is 2, so 6/2 = (2×3)/(2×1) = 2/2×3 = 3:
Answer: y = 3
