Answer:

The length of DF is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the two lines are equal, which is given by the markings on the triangle, then you can set the two lengths equal and find x.

7x - 13 = 3x + 3

4x - 13 = 3

4x = 16

x = 4

Now that we know x = 4, we can plug into the DF length to find its amount.

DF = 7x - 13

DF = 7(4) - 13

DF = 28 - 13

DF = 15

Marco needs to buy some cat food. At the nearest store, 5 bags of cat food cost $18.75. How much would Marco spend on 3 bags o

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

$11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

5 bags = $18.75

To find the amount for three bags, we need to find the price for <em>each </em>bag.

Divide 18.75 by 5.

18.75/5 = 3.75

So each bag is 3.75, and since we need to know the price for 3 bags, we need to multiply 3.75 by 3, which is 11.25.

Over [174]

Answer:

[2,6]

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=36

5x-4=y

3x+5(5x-4)=36

3x+25x-20=36

28x-20=36

28x=56

x=2

5x-4=y

5*2-4=y

10-4=y
