Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
We know there are 16 oz in a pound
We can use ratios
15 x
----- = ----------
6 oz 16 oz
Using cross products
15 * 16 = 6x
240 = 6x
divide by 6
240/6 = 6x/6
40 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve systems of equations using either substitution or elimination. For these problems, I recommend elimination. I'll do the first one as an example.
-3x + 16y = 9
-4x + 8y = 12
Multiply the second equation by -2.
8x − 16y = -24
Add to the first equation (notice the y's cancel out).
(-3x + 16y) + (8x − 16y) = 9 − 24
5x = -15
Solve for x.
x = -3
Now you can plug this into either equation to find y.
-3(-3) + 16y = 9
9 + 16y = 9
y = 0
The solution is (-3, 0).
Answer:
It would take Beth twelve minutes to wash the car herself
Step-by-step explanation:
If they do it together in 6 minutes.
& Katy can do it in 18 minutes alone
Then 18 - x = 6
replace x for twelve
18 - twelve = 6
Ans: twelve
