5x-6 because 6 less than means after and a number times 5 would be 5x so it would be 5x-6
Answer:
Celery = 3/8 cups
Tomatoes = 2/5 cups
Carrot = 5/4 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
CLUE 1: The amounts were 2/5 cup, 3/4 cup, and 5/8 cup
CLUE 2: There is less celery than tomatoes.
CLUE 3: There is less tomatoes than carrots
From clue 2 and 3:
Tomato > Celery ; Carrots > tomatoes
From least to highest :
Celery < Tomatoes < Carrot
Arranging clue 1 in ascending order :
2/5 = 0.4
3/8 = 0.375
5/4 = 1. 25
Hence,
3/8 < 2/5 < 5/4
Celery = 3/8 cups
Tomatoes = 2/5 cups
Carrot = 5/4 cups
M/k=x
(m)m/k=x(m)
k=xm
Because you are diving one the side where m/k, you need to multiply m to both sides to get rid of it on one. Therefore, you are left with K=XM
x = 12 , y = 18 (12, 18) is the solution, intersection of the two lines.
This equals 19.872.
If you multiply 7.2 by 12 and 0.23 then you would get 19.872 then to round it to the nearest hundredth it would be 19.902 because 7 is a greater number than 5 so that would make the 8 into a 9 and then 7 into a 0 and then you would keep the 19 and the 2
