The following decimals are in order from smallest to largest: .021, .02, .12, .2
Varying inversely means y=a number divided by x
find the number: 7=k/5 =>k=35
so the equation is y=35/x
~ Simplifying
-4x + -4 = -7(x + 4)
~ Reorder the terms:
-4 + -4x = -7(x + 4)
~ Reorder the terms:
-4 + -4x = -7(4 + x)
-4 + -4x = (4 * -7 + x * -7)
-4 + -4x = (-28 + -7x)
~ Solving
-4 + -4x = -28 + -7x
~ Solving for variable 'x'.
~ Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
~ Add '7x' to each side of the equation.
-4 + -4x + 7x = -28 + -7x + 7x
~ Combine like terms: -4x + 7x = 3x
-4 + 3x = -28 + -7x + 7x
~ Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
-4 + 3x = -28 + 0
-4 + 3x = -28
~ Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 3x = -28 + 4
~ Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 3x = -28 + 4
3x = -28 + 4
~ Combine like terms: -28 + 4 = -24
3x = -24
~ Divide each side by '3'.
x = -8
~ Simplifying
x = -8
Answer:
- 8 3/4
- 2, 3
- 4 1/2, 11 1/4
- 9 3/4, 16 1/4
- Y/B = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
The first line is simply the sum of the two given numbers.
3 1/2 +5 1/4 = (3+5) +(2/4+1/4) = 8 3/4
__
To find values on the remaining lines, it is convenient to find the ratios of the numbers involved. The ratio of yellow to blue is ...
Y/B = (3 1/2)/(5 1/4) = (7/2)/(21/4) = (7/2)(4/21) = 2/3
Then ...
Y : B : total = 2 : 3 : 5
This tells you the numbers on the second line are ...
Y = 2; B = 3
__
The value for B on the third line is the basic ratio number multiplied by (6 3/4)/3 = 2 1/4. Then the other two numbers are ...
Y = 2(2 1/4) = 4 1/2
total = 5(2 1/4) = 11 1/4
__
The value for Y on the fourth line is the basic ratio number multiplied by (6 1/2)/2 = 3 1/4. Then the other two numbers are ...
B = 3(3 1/4) = 9 3/4
total = 5(3 1/4) = 16 1/4
_____
<h3>b)</h3>
The equation is the one we used to find the values on the second line:
Y/B = 2/3
