4 0

Let t, h, b represent the weighs of tail, head, and body, respectively.

t = 4 . . . . given

h = t + b/2 . . . . the head weighs as much as the tail and half the body

b/2 = h + t . . . . half the body weighs as much as the head and tail

_____

Substituting for b/2 in the second equation using the expression in the third equation, we have

... h = t + (h + t)

Subtracting h from both sides gives

... 0 = 2t . . . . . . in contradiction to the initial statement about tail weight.

Conclusion: there's no solution to the problem given here.

EleoNora [17]

The inequality that represents the number of each type of fabric that Naomi has is:

9x+16y \leq 53

Let the number of short-sleeved shirts she made be x

Let the number of long-sleeved shirts she made be y

Length of clothes used to make a short-sleeved shirt = 9 yards

Length of clothes used to make a long-sleeved shirt = 16 yards

Length of short-sleeved shirts made = 9x

Length of long-sleeved shirts made = 16y

Total length of fabric used = 53 yards

The inequality that represents the number of each type of fabric that Naomi has is:

9x+16y \leq 53

L=a+(n-1)d <br><br> solve for n
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

(L-a)/d + 1 = n

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's isolate (n-1), and after that isolate n:

1) subtract a from both sides:  L - a = (n-1)d

2) Divide both sides by d:  (L-a)/d = n-1

3) Add 1 to both sides, to isolate n:            (L-a)/d + 1 = n

7n \le 21

Divide both sides by 7.

n \le 3

n must be less than or equal to 3. n can be 3 or any number under 3.

For example, n can be 1, 2, 3.
