4/3 = 1/x.....4 lbs potatoes to $3 = 1 lb of potatoes to $x
cross multiply
(4)(x) = (3)(1)
4x = 3
x = 3/4
x = 0.75....so 1 lb of potatoes cost 75 cents
(8,6)...this means 8 lbs of potatoes cost $6
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide 300 by 25
300/25=12
His house is 12 in long on the floor plan
<span>Write the equation of the line that satisfies the given conditions, Express the final equation in standard form. Contains the point (2,5) and is parallel to the line x-2y=-5
The given equation can be written 2y=x+5; y = (1/2)x+(5/2)
It's slope is 1/2
So any line parallel to it has slope = 1/2
If the line also passes thru (2,5), 5 = (1/2)2+b; b=4
Therefore the equation you want is y = (1/2)x+4</span>
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x−5)+4x−2=4
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(x−5)+4x−2=4
(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+4x+−2=4(Distribute)
3x+−15+4x+−2=4
(3x+4x)+(−15+−2)=4(Combine Like Terms)
7x+−17=4
7x−17=4
Step 2: Add 17 to both sides.
7x−17+17=4+17
7x=21
Step 3: Divide both sides by 7.
7x
7
=
21
7
x=3
