Divide second equation by -3
3x+2y=1
other equatin is
3x+2y=1
since same equation, they are same line and lines are infinite so infinite solutions is answe
Answer:
The percent decrease was 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, use the percent change equation.
(New - Old)/(Old) * 100 = % Change
Now input 48 for the New price and 60 for the Old price.
(48 - 60)/(60) * 100 = % Change
12/60 * 100 = % Change
.2 * 100 = % Change
20 = % Change
Answer:
first get a common denominator by multiplying 7 and 4 to get 28
28 is our common denominator here.
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to add the fractions 2/7 and 1/4
(2/7) * (4/4) and (1/4) * (7/7)
(2/7) * (4/4) + (1/4) * (7/7) = 8/28 + 7/28 = 15/28
You can use a proportion.
4 hours is to 82 miles as 14 hours is to x miles
4/82 = 14/x
Cross multiply to get
4x = 14 * 82
4x = 1148
x = 287
287 miles
we know that in direct variation as x increase y also increases.
in indirect variation x decreases y increase and vice versa.
in part a we have x at top (numerator ) and y at denominator it mean indirect variation (as x increases y decreases).
to find k we know that for indirect variation xy=k
if we rewrite the equation x=9/y we get xy=9
which mean k=9 .
in part b we have 4xy=20 if we simplify this equation we get

so here if we rewrite in terms of x.
we get x=5/y which represents indirect variation.
and we know xy=k
we have xy=5 .so k=5
