Answer:
Lets say test tubes = t, and beakers = b
1 pack of (t) is $4 less than 1 pack of (b)
Since i have no prior information we are going to use variables for this equation:
1t (1 pack of test tubes) is $4 less than 1b (1 set of beakers)
so to quantify the equation, we have 8t and 12b.
if b is a number that IS quantifiable such as $5 we can easily figure out this answer.
Lets use and example that 1 set of beakers is $8, if we multiply $8 by 12 (the number of sets of beakers), we get: 96
Using the same example, if 1t is $4 less than 1b than 1t = $4. So, if we multiply $4 by 8 (the amount of packs of test tubes), we get: 32
If you take both of those numbers: 96, and 32 and you divide them you get 3. so that means that 1t = 3b
Answer = 1t = 3b
This may not be correct due to the little information that i got however i hope that, that works out for you :)
Answer:
(8,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
y and -y cancels out leaving you with "12x=96"
that simplifies to "x=8"
Then you substitute 8 into the "x" from either equation and y should equal 4
Answer:
(1, 6)
(7, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -x + 7
y = -0.5(x - 3)² + 8
-x + 7 = -0.5(x - 3)² + 8
-x + 7 = -0.5(x² - 6x + 9) + 8
-x + 7 = -0.5x² + 3x - 4.5 + 8
0 = -0.5x² + 4x - 3.5
0 = x² - 8x + 7
0 = (x - 7)(x - 1)
x - 7 = 0 or x - 1 = 0
x = 1 or 7
