Write and solve an equation of ratios:

1/4 pizza        $5
------------- = -----------
       x              $8
                                                     2 pizza
Then (1/4)($8) = ($5)x, or x = ---------------   (that's 2/5 of a whole pizza).
                                                     5

Which ordered pair represents the solution to the system of equations? {−5x+7y=−196x−2y=10
k0ka [10]
Answer:
x = 1
y = -2

Explanation:
First, solve for x by subtracting 7y from both sides of the first equation and then divide both sides by -5.

-5x + 7y = -19
-5x + 7y - 7y = -19 - 7y
-5x = -19 - 7y
-5x/ -5 = -19 - 7y/ -5
x = -19 - 7y/ -5

Next, substitute the value of x into the second equation and solve.

6 - (-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10

Then, solve for y

- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
-6(-19 - 7y) - 10y = 50
114 + 42y - 10y = 50
144 + 32y = 50
32y = 50 - 144
32y = -64
32y/ 32 = -64/ 32
y = -2

Finally, substitute the value of y into the x value we found earlier and solve

x = - 19 - 7y/ 5
x = - 19 - 7 • -2/ 5
x = 1

Heather had six 2-liter bottles of blood. She poured the blood into glasses which each have a capacity of 3 deciliters. How many
Flauer [41]
The human body has about 5.5 liters of blood
3 deciliters is about 0.3 liters
so 5.5/0.3=18.33333
so she could fill 18 and 1/3 glasses before she died
wait
oooooh, she has a supply of blood other than her own, nvm, I should read better


1 decileter is 1/10 of a liter
so 3/10 of a liter per glass

6 of those 2 liter bottles
so total is 6*2=12 liters
so
3/10 times number of glasses=12
times both sides by 10/3
number of glasses=120/3
number of glasses=40
can fill 40 glasses with the blood she is supplied (not including her own)
