3 bowls of chicken

7 bowls of tomato.

Let's give our numbers names: we'll call the number of bowls of tomato soup t and the number of bowls of chicken soup c.

We know from the question that c is 4 less than t, so we can write that fact as the equation

c = t - 4

We <em>also</em> know that, when we add both of the amounts together, we get 10, so that

c + t = 10

We can then use the first equation to replace c with t - 4:

(t - 4) + t = 10

or, rearranging:

2t - 4 = 10

This means that if we <em>double the number of tomato bowls and subtract 4, we arrive at 10</em>. To find what exactly t is, then, we can go the other way around. If we <em>add </em>4, we see that 2t = 14, and if we <em>halve </em>2t, we find that t = 7, so the cafeteria sold 7 bowls of tomato soup.

Checking our work, we see that c = 7 - 4 = 3, and 7 + 3 = 10, so this answer is consistent with what we've been given.

What is the standard form of the linear function that passes
babunello [35]

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

(\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-2}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{4}}}\implies \cfrac{-3}{-2}\implies \cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{3}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{4})

\stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2(y-1)=2\left( \cfrac{3}{2}(x-4) \right)}\implies 2y-2 = 3(x-4)\implies 2y-2=3x-12 \\\\\\ -3x+2y-2=-12\implies -3x+2y=-10\implies \stackrel{\times -1\textit{ to both sides}}{3x-2y=10}

Help!<br> math problem step by step please
natta225 [31]

Answer:

2x -y ≥ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The intercepts of the boundary line are given, so it is convenient to start with the equation of that line in intercept form:

... x/(x-intercept) + y/(y-intercept) = 1

... x/2 + y/(-4) = 1

Multiplying by 4 gives the equation of the line.

... 2x -y = 4

This line divides the plane into two half-planes. The half-plane that is shaded is the one for larger values of x and/or smaller values of y than the ones on the line. So, for some given y, if we increase x we will get a number from our equation above that is greater than 4. Hence, the inequality we want is ...

... 2x -y ≥ 4

We use the ≥ symbol because the line is solid, so part of the solution space.

The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 4x-6. The perimeter of the triangle is 60. Find x.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Perimeter of a triangle = add all sides

Both the legs of the isosceles triangle are always EQUAL.

x+4x-6+4x-6 = 60

9x-12 = 60

9x = 60+12

9x = 72

x = 8
