Let X = pounds of Bermuda grass needed.
(20 pounds bahia grass x $6.30) + ( X x $3.65) = (20 +X) x $4.90
Simplify:
126 + 3.65X = 98 + 4.90X
Subtract 3.65X from each side:
126 = 98 + 1.25X
Subtract 98 from each side:
28 = 1.25X
Divide both sides by 1.25
X = 28 / 1.25
X = 22.4 pounds required.
Answer:
(7,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 9 + 2x - 3y = 8 is really two equations, and you should show this by separating x + y = 9 from 2x - 3y = 8 through the use of a comma, or the word "and," or through writing only one equation per line.
Here you have the system of linear equations
x + y = 9
2x - 3y = 8.
Let's solve this system by elimination. Mult. the 1st eqn by 3, obtaining the system
3x + 3y = 27
2x - 3y = 8
-------------------
5x = 35, so that x = 7. Subbing 7 for x in x + y = 9, we get 7 + y = 9, indicating that y = 2.
Thus, the solution to this system of equations is (7,2).
1/4 is equivalent to 5/20
Answer:
3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
- total marbles: 6+9+5 = 20
- blue marbles: 6
- 6/20 = 3/10
