Solve the system by substitution.
tino4ka555 [31]
As we know y=3/4x-3
Let's put it in the second equation
3/4x-3=1/4x+1
3/4 x -1/4 x = 1+3
2/4 x = 4
X= 4*4/2
x=8
Put x= 8 in first equation
y= 3/4 *8 -3
y=6-3
y=3
Check the answer
3=3/4 *8 -3
3=6-3
3=3
Correct
So(y, x) = (3,8)
Because x=8 and y=3

Which situation can be modeled by the inequality 60−15x≥7?
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a situation for 60−15x≥7, look for a story where 60 is a constant value that is decreasing by 15 for a number of times and where equal to or at least 7 is an option.

A. x would be weeks and it would decrease by 7x. This is not it.

B. 15 songs packages would have x be the number of packages not the price. This is not it.

C. This doesn't work either because if you want to owe them less than 7 it would have the sign < not >.

D. You have 60 to spend and you decrease it by $15 for each hat you buy till you save $7. This is it.

The weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4

<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>

It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.

We have:

A greedy hamster hoarded 2 piles of sunflower seeds. Yesterday the ratio of the seeds in these piles was 3:4

Let 3x and 4x are the seeds from the smaller and bigger pile.

= 4x + 2  (greedy hamster placed another 2 pounds of seeds in the bigger pile)

= 3x - 1/4 (ate 1/4 pound from the smaller pile)

4x + 2 = 5x

Because the quantities of seeds in those piles is in the ratio of 5:16

After solving:

x = 2

Smaller pile weight = 3x = 3(2) = 6

Bigger pile wieght = 4x = 4(2) = 8

Thus, the weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4
