Answer:

<u>36 tables are used to seat  the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Round tables = 8 seats

Rectangular tables = 12 seats

Ratio of round tables to rectangular tables = 2:1

Number of students = 336

2. How many tables are used to seat 336 students at the banquet, if no table has an empty seat?

x = Number of rectangular tables

2x = Number of round tables

Let's solve for x, using this equation:

12x + 8 (2x) = 336

12x + 16x = 336

28x = 336

x = 336/28

x = 12 ⇒ 2x = 24

12 + 24 = 36

<u>36 tables are used to seat  the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>

Find the values of x and y. <br> x + 7i = y − yi
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: X = y - yi - 7i

               Y = (x + 7i)/(1 - i)

Step-by-step explanation: for the case of (X) you only need to pass the 7i to the other side with the subtraction sign (-7i), then we get this equation:

x + 7i = y − yi

X = y - yi - 7i

in the case of the (Y), first we select the common multiple.

y - yi = y(1 - i)

if we replace it in the original expression, we get the following equation:

x + 7i = y(1 - i)

after that you can pass the value (1 - i) to the other side dividing,

Y = (x + 7i)/(1 - i)

Solve for x.
victus00 [196]
The answer is 370 because you need to work it out.

Basically what I did was look at the first number, 12, and the answer to the equation and saw that 12 x 10 would be 120. And 360 + 10 would be 370.

It fits in perfectly.

12(370 - 360) = 120
370 - 360 = 10
12(10) = 120

So x = 370
