Answer:

x = -(8 - 3 y)/y

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

y = 8/(3 - x)

y = 8/(3 - x) is equivalent to 8/(3 - x) = y:

8/(3 - x) = y

Take the reciprocal of both sides:

(3 - x)/8 = 1/y

Multiply both sides by 8:

3 - x = 8/y

Subtract 3 from both sides:

-x = (8 - 3 y)/y

Multiply both sides by -1:

Answer:  x = -(8 - 3 y)/y

\huge\boxed{x=3-\frac{8}{y}}

y=\frac{8}{3-x}

Multiply both sides of the equation by (3-x). y(3-x)=8

Divide both sides by y. 3-x=\frac{8}{y}

Subtract 3 from both sides. -x=\frac{8}{y}-3

Multiply both sides by -1, making everything opposite. \boxed{x=3-\frac{8}{y}}

You decide to go to the movies for your birthday. You need to buy 8 student tickets and 2 adult tickets. If student tickets are
Leto [7]

Answer:

$112.80

Step-by-step explanation:

You are buying 8 student tickets, each costing $10.68. Multiply 8 with 10.68:

10.68 x 8 = 85.44

You are buying another 2 adult tickets, each costing $13.68. Multiply 2 with 13.68:

13.68 x 2 = 27.36

Next, add the two costs together:

27.36 + 85.44 = 112.80

$112.80 is your total cost.

x,y, and z to the nearest tenth .(hint: use altitude and leg rules) PLEASE HELP FAST !!! please solve and show steps
madreJ [45]

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find z:

z = √(6^2 + 9^2)

z= √(36 + 81)

z = √117

z = 3√13 = 10.8

Use leg rule to find x:

x/6 = 6/9

Cross multiply:

9x = 36

Divide both sides by 9:

x = 36/9

x = 4

Use Pythagorean theorem to find y:

y = √(6^2 + 4^2)

y= √(36 + 16)

y = √52

y = 2√13 = 7.2

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola
murzikaleks [220]

Not really sure what you are looking for, but this is how to solve equations such as these.

Let:

x = number of pounds of granola

y = numer of pounds of walnuts

The equation he can use to compute the total cost would be:

$2.00x + $6.00y = $12.00

We know that he bought 3 pounds of granola, so we plug in that for the x value:

$2.00(3) + $6.00y = $12.00

$6.00 + $6.00y = $12.00

To isolate the unknown value which is y, we first need to subtract $6.00 from both sides of the equation:

$6.00 + $6.00y - $6.00 = $12.00 - $6.00

$6.00y = $6.00

Then we divide both sides by $6.00:

$6.00y/$6.00 = $6.00/$6.00

y = 1

So the number of bags of walnuts he can buy is 1 bag.
