$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} cans&\$\\ \cline{1-2} 12&33\\ 5&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{12}{5}=\cfrac{33}{x}\implies 12x=165 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{165}{12}\implies x=13.75$

Subtitute 2x+y=7 and 3x-y=8

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

x = 3 , y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 7

3x + y = 8

solution

2x + y = 7-----------(1)

3x - y = 8------------(2)

from equation 1

2x + y = 7

y = 7 - 2x-------------(3)

substitute equation 3 into equation 2

3x - y = 8

3x - (7 - 2x) = 8

3x - 7 + 2x = 8

3x + 2x = 8 + 7

5x = 15

divide through by the coefficient of x

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 3

to find y

substitute x into equation 1

2x + y = 7

2(3) + y = 7

6 + y = 7

y = 7 - 6

y = 1

Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.If she keeps picking strawberries at the same rate, how many gallon

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

3 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.

Let us convert our given time in minutes.

1 hour= 60 minutes.

1/2 hour= 30 minutes.

So 2 hours= 120 minutes.

Let us find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes by dividing 3/4 by 30.

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{30}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{3}{4*30}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{1}{40}$

Now let us multiply 1/40 by 120 to find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 120 minutes(2 hours).

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=120*\frac{1}{40}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=3$

Therefore, Jen picked 3 gallons of strawberries in 2 hours.
