Ni : Zn: Cu = 7:2:9 =7x : 2x : 9x

7x+2x+9x = 3.8
18x=3.8
x=3.8/18=1.9/9≈0.21

Ni:   7x=7*0.21=1.47 ≈1.5 kg
Zn:  2x=2*0.21=0.42≈0.4 kg
Cu: 9x=9*0.21=1.89 ≈1.9 kg

Check 1.5+0.4+1.9 =3.8 True

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The system of linear equations are y=5+x and  x+y=25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of students who chose lunch was 5 more than the number of students who chose breakfast. Let x represent the number of students who chose breakfast and y represent the number of students who chose lunch.

(50 students picked, 25 picked dinner the rest picked lunch and breakfast)

Solution :

The number of students who chose breakfast be 'x'

The number of students who chose lunch be 'y'.

The number of students who chose lunch was 5 more than the number of students who chose breakfast.

i.e. y=5+x

Now, Total student were 50 and 25 picked dinner the rest picked lunch and breakfast i.e. 25.
