The first equation is 6x - 2y = 10. To solve for y, you will use inverse (opposite) operations to undo what is happening to y. Please see the steps below for the work.
6x - 2y = 10
-6x -6x
<u>-2y </u>= <u>(-6x + 10)</u>
-2 -2
y = 3x - 5
Question 1
well the is a 1:4 Faculty:trainee ratio
if there are 2:20, that would be a 1:10
you just need to find 1/4th of 20 and thats the total
20/4=5
You need five faculty total so
YOU NEED 3 MORE
Question 2
600 pretzels/10 minutes
?pretzels/52 minutes
600x52/10=3120
Question 3
700 people/ 2 tons
20,850,000/ ? tons
20,850,000 x 2 / 700= <span>59,571.4285714 OR about 60,000 tons</span>
1. Is a difference of 5 each time so it would be 28,33,38
3. Is the same so go up by 5 each time.
4. Goes up by 3, so your next answers would be 17,20,23.
5.im not sure if that was a typo but it looks like everything after 30 goes up 7 so it would be 51,58,65 hope the last one was a typo but the rest should be right
This the problem we are looking at: 6 pounds/18 = 72 ounces /?
To solve this, we have to make the unit of measurement the same. There are 16 ounces in 1 pound. So, there are 72 ounces in 4.5. To find that you just do 72 divided by 16. This is the new problem we are looking at: 6 pounds/18 = 4.5 pounds/?
To find ?, you must divided 6 divided by 4.5 to find the difference between the two to keep the same rate. That equals 1.33333333.
What is done to the numerator, you must do to the denominator to keep the same rate so now you divide 18 divided by 1.33333333 which equals 13.5
So for 72 ounces (4.5 pounds) it will cost $13.50
I hope this helps:)
