1/5 divided by 5/7 is 7/25
1/5 ÷ 7/5 = 7/25
Your answer is 7/25
Answer:
14 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.
<h3>Solution</h3>
x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation
7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify
21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides
14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5
14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.

<em>Additional comment</em>
There are many ways to solve a system of two linear equations. The attachments shows a matrix solution using a suitable calculator. It tells us that x=6 and y=14, as we found above.
Multiply both sides of the second equation by 4. That will give you -4x in the second equation which when added to 4x of the first equation will eliminate x.
Second equation:
-x + 3y = 6
Multiply the second equation by 4 on both sides:
-4x + 12y = 26
To find:
An irrational number that is greater than 10.
Solution:
Irritation number: It cannot be expression in the form of
, where,
are integers.
For example:
.
We know that square of 10 is 100. So, square root of any prime number is an example of an irrational number that is greater than 10.
First prime number after 100 is 101.
Required irrational number 
Therefore,
is an irrational number that is greater than 10.
