2×9= 18

18÷9= 2

Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.

----------

Explanation: so, you divide. why do I know this? because it doesn't say "times," (multiplication word) "more than," (addition word) "less than/ left over." (subtraction word) so what your looking for is "equally," and "each."

So, can you do 2÷9? no, you cant. so you have to multiply 2×9 to get the answer. and what's the answer? 18!

so, now, can you divide 18÷9? yes!! why? because you can only divide big numbers like 18. and you can't divide small numbers like 2 or 9. do you get what I'm saying?

so, what's 18÷9? 2!!


I hope this helps! :) if you still don't understand it just please let me know :)

Y - 4x = 5<br> 8x - 2y = 16<br> Solve using system of equations
kumpel [21]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this system using elimination through addition/subtraction.  Multiply the second equation by (1/2), which results in the system

y - 4x = 5

4x - y = 8

--------------

0x + 0y = 13.  This is NEVER true.  This system of equation has NO  SOLUTION.

What is the DOMAIN of this relation? Write your answer.
pashok25 [27]

Answer: Domain = {-4, -1, 0, 2, 7, 8, 13}

The domain is the set of allowed x inputs. So all we do is list the set of x values in the top row of the table.

In contrast, the range is the set of possible y outputs. So the range would be {5,2,-3,7,4,9}. Any duplicate items in the range are tossed out. Optionally you can order the set from smallest to largest, but that's not required. This is because order in a set doesn't matter.

The time it takes to travel a fixed distance varies inversely with the speed traveled. It takes
uysha [10]

first off, let's notice that Purple's time is in minutes, whilst the rate is in miles per hour, the units of both must correspond, so, we can either change the time from minutes to hours or the rate from hours to minutes, hmmm let's change the time to hours.

so 40 minutes, we know there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so 40 minutes will be 40/60 of an hr, or namely 2/3.

\qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}} ~\hspace{6em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{y=\cfrac{\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}}{x}~\hfill } \\\\ \textit{\underline{x} varies inversely with }\underline{z^5} ~\hspace{5.5em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{x=\cfrac{\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}}{z^5}~\hfill } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\stackrel{\begin{array}{llll} \textit{\tiny "t"ime varies}\\ \textit{\tiny inversely with "s"peed} \end{array}}{t = \cfrac{k}{s}}\qquad \textit{we know that} \begin{cases} t=\stackrel{minutes}{40}\to \stackrel{hrs}{\frac{2}{3}}\\ s=\stackrel{m/h}{9} \end{cases} \implies \cfrac{2}{3}~~ = ~~\cfrac{k}{9} \\\\\\ 18=3k\implies \cfrac{18}{3}=k\implies 6=k~\hfill \boxed{t=\cfrac{6}{s}} \\\\\\ \textit{when s = }\stackrel{m/h}{12}\textit{ what is "t"?}\qquad t=\cfrac{6}{12}\implies t=\cfrac{1}{2}
