Answer:

(5/24) gallons of gas to mow the side yard

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this proble by applying a rule of three

5/16 gallons of gas  ---------------------------------  for 1 backyard

x  gallons of gas ------------------------------------- 2/3 backyard

x = ((2/3)/1)*(5/16) gallons of gas

x = ((2/3))*(5/16) gallons of gas

x = ((10/48) gallons of gas

x = (5/24) gallons of gas

Graph the equation to solve the system. y=2x+7 1/2y=x+7/2
vlabodo [156]

Given equation is y=2x+7 and \frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}

Let's simplify the 2nd equation \frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2} before we can start graph so that calculation will be easy

\frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out fractions

2*\frac{1}{2}y=2*x+2*\frac{7}{2}

y=2x+7

which is exactly same as the first equatoin so graph of both will be exactly same and solution will be infinitely many solutions.

y=2x+7 has y-intercept 7 so first point will be (0,7). Slope is 2 so rise 2 unit up then 1 right and graph the new point.
