On question 9, x = 0.46284330
Options :
A cookies per pound
B. O pounds per hour
c. cookies per hour
D. hours per cookie
Answer: C.) Cookies per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Number of cookies baked = 225 cookies
Total time taken = 5 hours
Amount of sugar used = 8 pounds
Tara divides 225 by 5; 225 / 5 = 45
Rate gives the amount or number of times something occurs within a given period, Hence
The rate obtained by Tara corresponds to the ratio of ; (Total cookies baked / total time taken) = (225 / 5), this translates to the amount or number of cookies baked within an hour.
Answer:
adding both equations
4x+9y=5
-4x+7y=11
+ + =+
________
0 +16y=16
y=1
putting the value of y in first eqn
4x+9×1=5
4x=5-9
4x=-4
x=-1
so the x is -1 and y is 1
The decimal equivalent of 3/10 is .3
