The numbers are 5 and 2.
Reciprocals: 5- 5/10
2- 2/10
(2/10)+(5/10)= 7/10
5-2= 3
Answer: 5 and 2
its true because -1 to even power is positive, -1 to odd power is negative
Answer:
Cost of five blouses = $145
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = cost of blouse
y = cost of skirt
15x + 2y = 505 (1)
5x + 2y = 215 (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate y
15x - 5x = 505 - 215
10x = 290
x = 290/10
x = 29
Substitute x = 29 into (2)
5x + 2y = 215 (2)
5(29) + 2y = 215
145 + 2y = 215
2y = 215 - 145
2y = 70
y = 70/2
y = 35
x = cost of blouse = $29
y = cost of skirt = $35
How much do 5 such blouses cost?
cost of a blouse = $29
Cost of five blouses = $29 × 5
= $145
Cost of five blouses = $145
The table that shows a ratio of y to x as 8:1 is C.
This comes from the fact every value of y is 8 times the value of x given.
