Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Proportionality between skein values
8:2=4:1
Proportionality between cost values
28:7=4:1
The variation(both the skein values and cost values) has the constant of 4 ie the 1st skein value × 4= the last skein value & the 1st cost value × 4=the last cost value
Answer:
the item would cost $9000
Answer:
0.01
Step-by-step explanation:
you just have to do the opposite. Since the is n*-5/8 you want to use inverse operation and do -0.4 divided by -5/8 when you do that you end up with 0.01. So the value of n is 0.01
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
