Answer: 15 ounces of wine
Step-by-step explanation:
A five-ounce glass of wine which is 12 percent alcohol), a 12-ounce of beer, and a 1.5 ounces of 86-proof liquor all have approximately thesame amount of alcohol.
Therefore, 36 ounces of beer will be:
= 36 × 5/12 ounces of wine
= 15 ounces of wine
X=numerator
y=denominator
the sum of numerator and denominator=x+y
we suggest this system of equations:
y=x-3
(x+5) / (y+5)=5/6
we solve this system of equation by substitution method.
(x+5) / (x-3+5)=5/6
(x+5) / (x+2)=5/6
6(x+5)=5(x+2)
6x+30=5x+10
6x-5x=10-30
x=-20
y=x-3=-20-3=-23
Teh sum of the numerator an denominator=-20+(-23)=-43
Answer: -43
0.125 or 1/8
hopes it helps you
1/2, 4/8, etc. Because they all equal to one half. <span />
