Weights of different sandwiches in two lengths are shown in the table.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Egg salad sandwich is proportional to its length

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of Sandwiches by Length of Roll

                                        6-inch Roll      12-Inch Roll

Cheese sandwich               \frac{1}{4}                      \frac{3}{4}

Chicken salad sandwich     \frac{3}{4}                     1\frac{3}{4}

Egg salad sandwich            \frac{2}{3}                   1\frac{1}{3}

For cheese sandwich proportion

\frac{6}{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{12}{\frac{3}{4}}\\24 \neq 16

So, Cheese sandwich weight is not proportional to its length

For Chicken salad sandwich proportion

\frac{6}{\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{12}{\frac{7}{4}}\\8 \neq \frac{48}{7}

So, chicken salad sandwich is not proportional to its length

For Egg salad sandwich  proportion

\frac{6}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{12}{\frac{4}{3}}\\9=9

So, egg salad sandwich is proportional to its length

Use addition to solve the linear system of equations. Include all of your work in your final answer. \(\left\{ \right.\) 3x-y=6
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Solving the given linear system, we get x = 1 and y = -3.

The solution set is: (1,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the linear system of equations.

3x-y=6 \\y=x-4

We can write second equation y=x-4  as: -x+y=-4

Let:

3x-y=6--eq(1)\\ -x+y=-4--eq(2)

Now, Adding equation 1 and 2

3x-y=6\\ -x+y=-4\\--------\\2x+0y=2\\2x=2\\x=\frac{2}{2}\\x=1

So, we get x = 1

Now, put value of x in second equation to find value of y:

y=x-4\\Put\:x=1\\y=1-4\\y=-3

So, we get y = -3

Solving the given linear system, we get x = 1 and y = -3.

The solution set is: (1,-3)
