Answer: -3
Step-by-step explanation: well there is a pretty easy explanation for this because what you pretty much do is you put the answer around by doing 5-2 and just put a negative since the smaller number is in the front.
If x is the number of berries you can buy with 1 dollar,
1 pound of blueberries = $4.00
x pound of berries = $1.00
Lets set up a proportion- because these are directly proportional- when there is more pounds of berries, it will cost more.

Cross multiply
4x=1
Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x
x=1/4 or $0.25
Answer:
A. z = 2292.8 is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable (z). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 1092.8 to both sides
z - 1092.8 (+1092.8) = 1200 (+1092.8)
z = 1200 + 1092.8
z = 2292.8
A. z = 2292.8 is your answer

Answer:
P=40
a + b + x = P
a = 3x
b = x + 5
substitute for b & y
3x + (x+5) + x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
longest section 1 = a
mid length section 2 = b
shortest section 3 = x
P=40
a + b + x = P
a = 3x
b = x + 5
substitute for b & y
3x + (x+5) + x = 40
5x + 5 = 40
5x = 35
x = 7
b = 12
a = 21
