Answer:

The cost of 1kg jam is $7 and the cost of 1kg butter is $4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let jam = x

butter = y

3x + 2y = 29 -----(1)

6x + 3y = 54 -----(2)

(1)×2 ->

6x + 4y = 58 -----(3)

(3)-(2) ->

y = 4

suby=4into(2)

6x + 3(4) = 54

6x = 42

x = 7

(Correct me if i am wrong)

From Denver yo Chicago =3in if the scale is 1in=300miles
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Basically a proportion so it’d be 1in/300 mi = 3in/x mi
cross multiple that out and you get 300•3=x and then just solve for x. the answer should be 900 miles.

The charge for electricity consumption E is partly constant and partly varies as the number N of units used. The charge for 82 u
balandron [24]

The charge per unit of electricity is #415

The formula for E in terms of N is E = 375 + 40N

<h3>What is variation?</h3>

Variation is a mathematical term that establishes the relationship between quantities and variables in an equation.

Analysis:

E = K + CN

where K and C are constants

When E = 3655, N = 82 and when E = 2055, N = 42

3655 = K + 82C ---------------1

2055 = K + 42C----------------2

subtract equation 2 from 1

40C = 1600

C = 40

substitute C in equation 1

3655 = K + 82(40)

3655 = K + 3280

K = 3655 - 3280 = 375

charge per unit is N = 1

E = 375 + 40(1) = #415

Formula for E in terms of N is E = 375 + 40N

In conclusion, the charge per unit of electricity is 415 and the equation connecting E and N is E = 375 + 40N
