To evaluate 4y/x for x=8 and y=0 we shall have:
4y/x=(4×0)/8
=0/8
=0
Answer; 0
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the larger number be represented by x
Let the smaller number be represented by y
from the question, the next equations can be gotten :
x - y = 9 equation 1
x = 1 + 2y equation 2
Substitute for x in equation 1
1 + 2y - y = 9
1 + y = 9
Collect like terms
y = 9 - 1
y = 8
Substitute for y in equation 1 and solve for x (the larger number)
x - 8 = 9
x = 9 + 8
x = 17
For both of the contests, the variable is the number of competitors which we can set as x.
Consequently, the equation should be 5.50x+34.60=4.25x+64.60
5.50x=4.25x+30
1.25x=30
x=24
The fee of the contests is the same when there are 24 competitors
The problem is: d=rt
you are solving for r
d=rt
-- --
t t
you divide both sides by r, so your answer is:
d/t=r or r=d/t
I hope this helped! :))
