Answer: the total weight of 1 red block is 4 ounces and 1 green block is 2.5 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total weight of 1 red block.

Let y represent the total weight of 1 green block.

The total weight of 2 red blocks and 6 green blocks is 23 ounces. This means that

2x + 6y = 23 - - - - - - - - - 1

The total weight of 3 red blocks and 4 green blocks is 22 ounces. This means that

3x + 4y = 22- - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

6x + 18y = 69

6x + 8y = 44

Subtracting, it becomes

10y = 25

y = 25/10 = 2.5

Substituting y = 2.5 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 6 × 2.5 = 23

2x + 15 = 23

2x = 23 - 15 = 8

x = 8/2 = 4

Question 3 What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (0.-7) and (-4, 3)? 0 -3/11 O -2/5 À O -5/2 0 10/4 Quest
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Gradient = Change in y / Change in x

Gradient = (-7-3) / (0-4)

Gradient = -10/-4

Gradient = 2.5

So the answer is 10/4, which is 2.5

Convert 13/8 to a mixed number
Effectus [21]
Given:
13/8

First you have to see how many times 8 can go into the number 13. If you look, 8 can only go into 13 one time, leaving 5 left over.
13-8 = 5
1 with 5 left over
(Rather than writing 8/8, you must simplify to 1 to make it less redundant)

Since there is 5 left over from 8, you would then place it into the numerator place to get:
1 5/8

I hope this helps!

Could some please help and explain?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a parallelogram where all sides are equal. Therefore, as we know two sides are equal to 7x+8 and 9x-6, we can say that

7x+8 = 9x - 6

subtract 7x from both sides to put the variable on one side

2x - 6 = 8

add 6 to both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient

2x = 14

divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

x = 7
