60/25 = 12/Y
cross multiply and divide
25 x 12 = 300
300 / 60 = 5
Y = 5 boxes
Answer:
The statement is true
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we have the proportion

we know that
To solve the proportion multiply in cross
so


therefore
The statement is true

is undefined if the argument

is negative, so you first need to require that

We're not done yet, though, because

still doesn't exist when

, so we remove this from the domain and we're left with

, or in interval notation,

To find the range, consider the limits of the function as you approach either endpoint of the domain.


Since

is positive everywhere, the range is
Let the colored pencil amount be p.
Then this is the equation:
12p+p=78
Simplifying, we can see that
13p=78
Divide both sides by 13 to get
p=6
Since there are 12 times as many markers as colored pencils, there are 72 markers.
