If it can be assumed that the total number paper and bags is the same for both orders, then:
#bags ordered in the spring=7*(150/3)=350, so the total of both is 150+350=500. A 5:5 ratio means that the wrapping paper and bags were bout in equal quantities. That means 500/2=250 for each.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying Equation A by (1/3) and adding the result to Equation B will do the trick. Let's actually solve the problem!
Equation A: (5/3)x + 3y = 12
Equation B: 4x - 3y = 8
---------------------------
(5/3 + 12/3)x = 15 Note how this has eliminated the variable
(17/3)x = 15 y.
x = (3/17)(15)
The tree's grow rate is 1.1 per month

Answer:
= 3(49c^2+16)
Step-by-step explanation:
4.16 / 5.20 = 1 / x.....4.16 lbs to $ 5.20 = 1 lb to $x
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(4.16)(x) = (5.20)(1)
4.16x = 5.20
x = 5.20 / 4.16
x = 1.25 per lb <==
