Answer:
Solution:
here,
6 cans cost = 9 dollars
1 can costs = 9÷6 dollars
= 1.5 dollars
Now,
8 cans cost = 8×1.5 dollars
= 12 dollars
Answer:
13. -3 14. (x+1)(2x-7) / (x-6)(x+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 5280 feet in a mile:
5280ft/mi
When using proportions to solve for unknown quantities, you need to keep the same units on the same side. This means keep "ft" on the top side and "mi" on the bottom side.
I would go with the second choice.
Answer:Gary made 15 baskets.
Susan made 10 baskets.
Bill made 17 baskets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of baskets that Gary made.
Let y represent the number of baskets that Susan made.
Let z represent the number of baskets that Bill made.
Gary made 5 baskets than Susan this season. This means that
x = y + 5
Bill made 3 less than twice as many baskets as Susan. This means that
z = 2y - 3
Together, all three made 42 baskets. This means that
x + y + z = 42 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = y + 5 and z = 2y - 3 into equation 1, it becomes
y + 5 + y + 2y - 3 = 42
4y + 2 = 42
4y = 42 - 2 = 40
y = 40/4 = 10
x = y + 5 = 10 + 5
x = 15
z = 2y - 3 = 2 × 10 - 3
z = 20 - 3 = 17
Infinite they’re all multiples, so they are the same line
