Answer:
If you have to find y you would get rid of the x. so if the x is alone then you do the opposite of the equation to get y by it's self and when you do you have what y equals to
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:The number of days it will take to sell the same amount of cookies is 3 and the number of tubs that will be sold is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of days it will take either of them to sell the same number of tubs.
Let y represent the total number of tubs that that Joseph will sell in x days.
Let z represent the total number of tubs that that Dwayne will sell in x days.
Joseph has already sold 3 tubs. If Joseph starts selling 8 tubs per day, it means that in x days, the number of tubs that he will sell will be
y = 8x + 3
Dwayne hasn't sold any yet. If Dwayne begins selling 9 tubs per day, it means that in x days, the number of tubs that he will sell will be
z = 9x
To determine the number of days it will take to sell the same amount of cookies, we will equate y to z. It becomes
8x + 3 = 9x
9x - 8x = 3
x = 3
The number of tubs that each will sell will be 9x = 9×3 = 27
Answer:
5.2
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2+b^2=c^2
Where c is the length of hypotenuse
and a, b are lengths of the legs.
Put in 6 for c,
Put in 3 for a and you get 9+b^2=36
Subtract 9 from both sides and get b^2= 27
Then find the square root of both sides to get b, so the answer is the square root of 27.
The cloest square root is 5, then apporixmate the tenths value and see if they work.
