Hello there!

Just use algebra and cross multiply :)

14/12 = d/48 

(14 * 48) = 12d
672 = 12d
56 = d

You can check this by plugging 56 for d and simplifying the two fractions to see if they are equal.

14/12 = 7/6
56/48 = 7/6

So, d=56 is correct.

Hope this helps!

Your beginning balance on your lunch account is $42. You buy lunch for $1.80 every day and sometimes buy a snack for $0.85. Afte
tangare [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: I bought 7 snacks

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

beginning balance = $42 = b

lunch = $1.80  = l

snack = $ 0.85  = s

final balance = $0.05 = f

                        f = b - 1.8l - 0.05s

                     0.05 = 42 - 1.8l - 0.85s

After 20 days I spent = 1.8(20) in lunches = $36

                    0.05 = 42 - 36 - 0.85s

                   0.05 = 6 - 0.85s

                  0.05 - 6 = -0.85s

                  -5.95 = -0.85s

                  s = -5.95/-0.85

                  s = 7

What is and equation line that passes through the point (8,-5) and is parallel to the line 5x+4y=24
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

5x + 4x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

You have your x and y values and if you substitute them in you find yourself with 40 - 20 = 24 this doesn't make sense. So you get another answer which can be set to 20 and 40 - 20 = 20 therefore you you can make sure that your line intersects with your x and y values.

Solve by elimination<br> -3x+2y=10<br> -2x-y=-5
Nataly [62]
First you need to get two similar terms to eliminate, I'll do y:
-3x + 2y = 10
-4x - 2y= -10
And then you minus
x = 20
Now you can substitute x in to one of the equations to find y:
-60 + 2y = 10
+ 60
2y = 70
÷ 2
y = 35
So your values are y = 35 and x = 20. Hope this helps!
