Answer:
3a. yes
3b. y= 75x
3c. 600 mi
3d. 10 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
3a: if you divide the y by the x, you'd get 75 everytime, meaning it's proportional.
3b: y would equal the amount of inches multiplied by 75, so y=75x
3c: you can use the equation and substitute the x for 8, so y=75(8), giving you 600 miles
3d: you can also use the equation in reverse, if the actual miles is 750, then this is your y, so it would look like 750=75x and to solve you'd divide, 750/75, giving you 10 inches
Answer:
1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply the dinominator by 3 because you are finding out how much you get if you cut 1/4 into 3 pieces that are the same size.
Answer:
- 9 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Get a common denominator for the fractions
-5 3/4 - 3 1/2 *2/2
-5 3/4 - 3 2/4
-5 3/4 + -3 2/4
Add them together
-8 5/4
We have an improper fraction
-( 8 + 1 1/4)
- (9 1/4)
- 9 1/4
Answer:
x=1/4
y=1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
-2.4x+3.6y=1.2
2.4x + 1.2y=1.2
-2.4x+3.6y=1.2
Divide through by 1.2
-2x+3y=1
2.4x + 1.2y=1.2
Divide through by 1.2
2x+y=1
-2x+3y=1 (1)
2x+y=1 (2)
From 2
y=1-2x
Substitute y=1-2x into (1)
-2x+3y=1
-2x+3(1-2x)=1
-2x+3-6x=1
-8x=1-3
-8x=-2
Divide both sides by -8
x=1/4
Substitute x=1/4 into (2)
2x+y=1
2(1/4)+y=1
2/4+y=1
1/2+y=1
y=1-1/2
y=1/2
x=1/4
y=1/2
