1 1/9
To figure out how much walnuts to a pound of dried fruit you’d need to do proportions. So we cross multiply:
2/3 = X
—————- —————-
3/5 = 1
You multiply diagnols 2/3 x 1 = 2/3
3/5 times x is 3/5x.
2/3 = 3/5x. Isolate the variable. Divide 3/5 on both sides cancel out 3/5. 2/3 divide by 3/5 is 2/3 x 5/3 which is 10/9 which equals 1 1/9.
So for 1 lb of dried fruit you need 1 1/9 lb of walnuts to maintain the same mixture
Answer:
(1/7, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
By "answer," you probably meant "solution." What is the "solution of the system of linear equations
- 5y = - 5
+ 7x +6y=7
The first eqation can be solved for y: y = 1. Substitute 1 for y in the secon equation. Then 7x + 6(1) = 7, or 7x = 1, or x = 1/7.
The solution to this system is (1/7, 1)
Answer:
7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 multiply the denominator by 2 which will make it 10. Then multiply the numerator by 2 which will make it 4. So it will be 4/10. Then add 4/10 to 3/0 which makes 7/10.
