9 = 2x + y
6 = x + y
are the equations
Masja [62]4 years ago

2x + y = 9
x + y = 6
To graph, rewrite in y=mx+b form
y = -2x + 9 (slope -2, y-intercept 9)
y = -x + 6 (slope -1, y-intercept 6)

Once you graph you will see that the point of intersection is (3,3).
The cantaloupe costs $3 and the watermelon costs $3.

What is the value of x
Gemiola [76]
For this case, we observe that the triangles are similar.
 We observe that the triagnules have three equal angles.
 Therefore, to find the value of x we can use the following relationship:
 x / 15 = 5/12

 Clearing x we have:
 x = (5/12) * (15)

x = 6.25
 Answer:
 
The value of x is given by:
 
x = 6.25

315%of 26.2 is what number. Please help me
Alex Ar [27]
To figure out the percentage of a number, take the percentage and move the decimal to the left two times. So 315 would turn into 3.15.
Now multiply the new number to the other number.
3.15 * 26.2
The answer is 82.53.
Hope this helped!
