All these ratios people are having trouble with today.

Its pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

So they release 12 grizzly.

We can say 12/x since we dont know the amount of grizzly bears in total.

We can then set 12/x equal to 2/21 and solve for x by using cross multiplication

Do these equations have infinite solutions 2x + 5y= 31 and 6x -y = 13
katovenus [111]

2x = 31 - 5y \\ x =  \frac{31}{2} -  \frac{5}{2}y

6x = 13 + y \\ x =  \frac{13}{6}  +  \frac{1}{6} y

27.) A customer went to a garden shop and bought some potting soil for $17.50 and 4 shrubs. The total bill was $53.50. Write and
Talja [164]

Answer:

c) The equation to find the price of each shrub is    $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50

The cost of 1 shrub = p =  $ 9.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of shrubs purchased = 4

The price paid for potting soil = $17.50

The total bill of purchase = $53.50

Let us assume the cost of 1 shrub   = $p

The total amount spent of 4 shrubs = 4 x ( The price of each shrub)  =  4 p

TOTAL BILL = The amount paid for 4 shrubs +  AMOUNT paid for SOIL

⇒ $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50

Now. solving for p, we get:

53.50 - 17.50  = 4  p

or, 3 6  = 4 p

or, p = 36/4 = 9

or, p = 9

Hence, the cost of each shrub = $9
