Answer:
Her error was multiplying numerator by numerator ( that is Quantity of Bone-shaped treats)
Step-by-step explanation:
Sarah's calculation
Let
x = cost of 12 Bone-shaped treats
Quantity of Bone-shaped treats : price
5 : 3.5 = 12 : x
(5/3.5) = (12/x)
Cross product
3.5x=60 (Here is her error)
x=17.14
Correct calculation
Quantity of Bone-shaped treats : price
5 : 3.5 = 12 : x
5 / 3.5 = 12 / x
Cross product
5 * x = 3.5 * 12
5x = 42
x = 42 / 5
= 8.4
x = $8.4
Her error was multiplying numerator by numerator ( that is Quantity of Bone-shaped treats)
Instead of multiplying Quantity of Bone-shaped treats by cost
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
According to the question, you need to find out the distance from your friend's house to school.
<em>Firstly figure out the coordinate of your school and school. Then use formula of distance.</em>
So, we find the coordinates as (7,7) and (5,0).
So, x 1 = 7 y1= 7
x 2 = 5 y2 = 0
~ Use distance formula.
~ Put all values.
~ Simplify it.
D= 7.280
Therefore, the distance between your friend's house and your school is 7.3 units.

I would love to use substitution (It is simplier that way I guess)
solve your system of equations.
x+2y=−1;x−y=5
Solve x+2y=−1 for x:
x+2y+−2y=−1+−2y(Add -2y to both sides)
x=−2y−1
Substitute (−2y−1) for x in x−y=5:
x−y=5
−2y−1−y=5
−3y−1=5(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−3y−1+1=5+1(Add 1 to both sides)
−3y=6
−3y/−3 = 6/−3(Divide both sides by -3)
y=−2
Substitute (−2) for y in x=−2y−1:
x=−2y−1
x=(−2)(−2)−1
x=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)
So the answer is (x = 3 and y = -2)
