<h3>
Answer: 60 muffins</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
x = some positive whole number
2x = amount Helen baked initially
5x = amount Rebecca baked initially
Notice that the ratio 2x:5x reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by x.
So (2x)/(5x) = 2/5
Helen then bakes another 12 muffins, bumping the 2x up to 2x+12. The ratio is now 1:2, which means,
(amount Helen bakes)/(amount Rebecca bakes) = 1/2
(2x+12)/(5x) = 1/2
2(2x+12) = 5x*1 .... cross multiply
4x+24 = 5x
24 = 5x-4x
24 = x
x = 24
From here, we then can say,
- Helen = 2x+12 = 2*24+12 = 48+12 = 60
- Rebecca = 5x = 5*24 = 120
Helen baked 60 muffins and Rebecca baked 120 muffins. We see that 60:120 reduces to 1:2 after dividing both parts by the GCF 60.
Furthermore, note how
- 2x = 2*24 = 48
- 5x = 5*24 = 120
- 48:120 reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by 24
This helps confirm we have the correct answer.
They are called unike fractions. If u would want to do anything to them u would have to make the denominaters the same
Answer:
The first one. The single line
Step-by-step explanation:
I can explain later but since you need it quick I will send my answer now :3
Further explanation:
A function is only a function if there are two x values to a single y value.
You can use the "vertical line test" to find out if a function is a function or not.
The vertical line test is where you put a line vertically through the function.
If at any point along the vertical line the function touches the line more than once, then it is not a function.
Answer:
x > 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) Distribute - 3 through the parenthesis
7x-3(4x-8)<6x+12-9x
7x-12x+24<6x+12-9x
2.) Then collect like terms
7x-12x+24<6x+12-9x
7x-12x+24<-3x+12
7x-12x+24<-3x+12
-5x+24<-3x+12
3.) Move the <u>variable</u> to the left and change the sign
-5x+24<-3x+12
-5x+3x+24<12
4.) Move the <u>constant</u> to the right and change it's sign
-5x+3x+24<12
-5x+3x<12-24
5.) Collect like terms
-5x+3x<12-24
-2x<12-24
6.) Calculate the difference
-2x<-12
7.) Divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign
-2x<-12
x>6
