Given:
For every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew.
Altogether, 12 seeds grew.
To find:
The number of total seeds planted by Lara.
Solution:
It is given that for every 3 seeds Lara planted, only 2 seeds grew. It means the ratio of total seeds planted to seeds grew is 3:2.
Altogether, 12 seeds grew.
Let x be the number of total seeds planted by Lara. Then,
Therefore, the total number of seeds planter by Lara is 18.
Multply both equations by 2 leaving
x + 2y = 8
x - 2y = -2
Add the equations giving
2x = 6
x = 3
Substitute 3 in the top equation
3 + 2y = 8
2y = -5
y = -2.5
Answer:
No x-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
When there's an equation that has no x then it will not touch the x axis.
X=2/3y-4
EXPLANATION
3x-2y=-12
You take -2y to the other side
It becomes 3x=2y-12
Then you divide 3
X=2/3y
-12/3=-4
X=2/3y-4
Answer:
12% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the difference between the two prices by the original price:
1.05/8.95
= 0.12
So, the percent change is 12%
