y = ( 48 *2 ) / 6
Step-by-step explanation:
If y varies directly as x they are directly proportional, which means they relate to each other in the same way....
2 : y = 6: 48
what is y if x = 2?
The value of y can be found if you write it a two fracrions
2 : y = 6 : 48
2 / y = 6 / 48
cross multiply the fractions gives
6*y = 48 *2
divide left and right of the = sign by 6 gives the answer:
y = ( 48 *2 ) / 6
(if you solve it you get y = 12 but that was not the question).
Other method:
multiply left and right of the = sign by y
2 * y/y = y *6 / 48
6y / 48 = 2 * 1
multiply left and right of the = sign by 48
6y * 48/48 = ( 48 *2 )
6y = ( 48 *2 )
divide left and right of the = sign by 6
6/6* y = ( 48 *2 )/6
y = ( 48 *2 ) / 6
(if you solve it you get y = 12 but that was not the question).
Answer:
35 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
This situation has two unknowns - the total number of dimes and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.
is an equation representing the total number of coins
is an equation representing the total value in money based on the number of coin. 0.10 and 0.25 come from the value of a dime and quarter individually.
We write the first equation in terms of q by subtracting it across the equal sign to get
. We now substitute this for d in the second equation.

After simplifying, we subtract 6 across and divide by the coefficient of q.

We now know of the 60 coins that 35 are quarters. To find the total value of the quarters, we multiply 35 by 0.25 and find 8.75.
