Answer:

Don caught 3.6 kg and Dan caught 0.6 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations:

Don's fish is the variable a and Dan's fish is the variable b.

a + b = 4.2 (1)

a=6b          (2)

We can substitute a in the first equation using the second equation, so:

6b + b = 4.2

7b = 4.2

b = 0.6 kg

Dan caught 0.6 kg. Then, we can use equation 2 to find how much Don caught.

a = 6 x 0.6

a = 3.6

Don caught 3.6 kg.

When y=7.5 x=2 what is the value of y when x is 2 1/4
swat32
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The value of y is 8.4375

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2><h3>Known :</h3>
  • y = 7.5
  • x = 2

<h3>Asked :</h3>
  • The value of y when x is 2.25

<h3>Solution :</h3>

2/7.5 = 2.25/y

Do a cross multiplication,

2/7.5 = 2.25/y

=> 20/75 = 2.25/y

=> 75 . 2.25 = 20y

=> 168.75 = 20y

Reverse the equation,

168.75 = 20y

=> 20y = 168.75

Find the value of y,

20y = 168.75

=> y = 8.4375

<h3>Conclusion :</h3>

y = 8.4375
