Answer:
4:1
Step-by-step explanation:
just divide by the highest numbe 2 in this case
Answer: 16
Solution:
1) Use letters to identify the variables:
Number of trumpets: t
Number of clarinets: c
2) Translate each statement into algebraic (mathematical) language.
2.1) Sold a total of 27 used trumpets and clarinets
=> t + c = 27
2.2) Trumpets cost $149 and clarinets cost $99
Total cost of the trumpets: 149t
Total cost of clarinets: 99c
Total cost = 149t + 99c
2.3) Total sales were $3223
=> 149t + 99c = 3223.
3) State the system of equations:
Equation (1) t + c = 27
Equation (2) 149t + 99c = 3223
4) Solve the system of equations:
4.1) Multiply equation 1 by 149:
=> 149t + 149c = 4023
4.2) Subtract the equation (2) from the equation obtained in 4.1
=> 149c - 99c = 4023 - 3223
=> 50c = 800
=> c = 800 / 50 = 16
5) Verify the solution:
From equation (1) t = 27 - 16 = 11
Total cost = 149*11 + 99*16 = 3223
Now you have a verified answer: they sold 16 clarinets
But where is the pic. Post a pic I’ll answer its
Answer: D. y = -4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the y-intercept is when x is zero and the x intercept is when y is 0.
and to write in the equation in slope intercept form , you will need the slope and the intercept.
We will use the y and x intercepts to find the slope, by find the difference in their y coordinates and dividing it by the difference in their x coordinates.
y intercept: ( 0,4)
x intercept: (1,0)
y coordinates difference: 4 - 0 = 4
x coordinates difference: 0 - 1 = - 1
Slope: 4/-1 = -4
Since the slope is -4 and the the y intercept is 4 , the equation will be
y = -4x + 4
Go 6 units in X axis and 1 unit in Y axis and you get V.
