Let the number of pepperoni pizzas be x
pepperoni = x
veggie = x - 8    [<span>There were eight fewer veggie than pepperoni]
</span>combo = 3x       [T<span>here were three times as many combo as pepperoni]
</span>
Given that the total Pizza: 112
x + x - 8 + 3x = 112
5x - 8 = 112
5x = 112 + 8
5x = 120
x = 24

x= 24
x - 8 = 16
3x = 72

So there were 24 pepperoni pizza, 16 veggie pizza and 72 combo pizza

What equation(s) represent joint variations? check all that apply c=2pi z=3x/y y=3x+2 w=abc/4 v=lwh
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Joint variations occurs when one variable depends on the value of two or more variables. The variable varies directly or indirectly with the other variables combined together. The other variables are held constant. From the given examples, the equation(s) that represent joint variations are

1) z = 3x/y

z varies directly with x and inversely with y.

2) w = abc/4

w varies inversely with a,b and c. 4 is the value of the constant of variation.

Plz help plz plz plz plz
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of green : pink = 32 : 56 = 4 : 7

After 7 pink are given away, then

ratio = ? : 49 = 4 : 7 ← ratio has to be the same

Using proportion

\frac{?}{4} = \frac{49}{7} ( cross- multiply )

7? = 196 ( divide both sides by 7 )

? = 28

Thus the ratio = 28 : 49 = 4 : 7

Thus 32 - 28 = 4 green should be given
