Make 2 equations from the question first
x is the number of pints for type 1
y is the number of pints for type 2
The equation
x + y = 120
60% x + 85% y = 65% (x + y)
Solve the equation
From the 2nd equation
0.6x + 0.85y = 0.65(x + y)
0.6x + 0.85y = 0.65x + 0.65y
0.85y - 0.65y = 0.65x - 0.6x
0.2y = 0.05x
y = 4x
From the 1st equation
x + y = 120
x + 4x = 120
5x = 120
x = 24
y = 4x
y = 96
The first type should be 24 pints, the second type should be 96 pints
The three points are on the same line, so the slopes formed by any of the two points stay the same
[-7-(-5)]/(-1-0)=[n-(-5)/(1-0)
(n+5)=2
n=-3
D 22-14=8 14-7=7 7 of 14=50% so i think that’s the best estimate
Answer:
h = 7 + 6x
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are trying to find the height of the tree, we put h on the left side of the equation. Since the tree is 7ft tall at the moment, we write 7ft on the right side of the equation. Knowing that the tree grows 6 inches each year (x) we write 6x on the right side of the equation.
Answer:
-140 ft is not a distance
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance must be a positive number
-140 is negative
