</span><span>4x + 3y = 12
-4x - 10y = 2
add both equations
-7y = 14
divide by 7
y = -2
plug into first equation
4x + 3(-2) = 12
solve for x
4x = 18
x = 4.5

Im confused on this one !
Alex787 [66]

I believe that it would be the first one. They are looking for the distance from the y-axis, so the x value doesnt matter. 6 is 6 units away from the y-axis, and -6 is also 6 units away from the y-axis. Hope I helped!

If y varies directly as x and y = 21 when x = 5, find x when y = 42.
Lorico [155]

Answer: 10

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

varies directly means: \frac{y}{x} = k

Step 1: solve for k   ⇒  \frac{21}{5} = k

Step 2: plug in the given value and k to solve for the missing value: \frac{42}{x} = \frac{21}{5}

42(5) = 21(x)

\frac{42(5)}{21} = \frac{21(x)}{21}

2(5) = x

10  = x

Seed mixture X is 40 percent ryegrass and 60 percent bluegrass by weight; seed mixture Y is 25 percent ryegrass and 75.percent f
irinina [24]

Answer:

33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the weight of the mixture to be 100g**, then the weight of ryegrass in the mixture would be 30g.

Also, assume the weight mixture X used in the mixture is Xg, then the weight of mixture Y used in the mixture would be (100-X)g.

So we can now equate the parts of the ryegrass in the mixture as:

0.4X + 0.25(100-X) = 30

<=> 0.4X + 25 - 0.25X = 30

<=> 0.15X = 5

<=> X = 5/0.15 = 500/15 = 100/3

So the weight of mixture X as a percentage of the weight of the mixture

= (weight of X/weight of mixture) * 100%

= (100/3)/100 * 100%

= 33%
