First you plug in for x,
2(y-3)+y=12
Then you solve for y
2y-5+y=12
-10y+y=12
-9y=12
-9y/9=12/-9
y=-1.333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333
6:15:21
6:15:21= 2:5:7
<em>(when divided by 3)</em>
Answer:
infinite solution
Step-by-step explanation:
because Y = 7(x + 2) and y = 7x + 14 are the same
y = 7(x+2) = 7x + 14
eliminate to see
y = 7x + 14
-(y = 7x +14)
= 0 = 0 + 0
so it is infinite solution
Answer:
<u><em>4 boxes of tiles.</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Both rooms are square, so each has equal sides. Let's set a side to room A as x. It's area would be x^2. Room B has sides = 2x, so it's area would be (2x)^2 or 4x^2. The ratio of the areas B/A = 4x^2/x^2. B/A = 4.
Room B has 4 times the area of A. If one box of tile completes Room A, Room B would need four times that amount, or 4 boxes.
