Answer:

x = 6       la cantidad de estantes

y = 65    cantidad de libros

Step-by-step explanation:

LLamemos "x" la cantidad de estantes que tiene Marta, y llamaremos "y" la cantidad de libros.

La primera condición que se debe cumplir es que cuando Marta coloca 12 libros en cada estante entonces le faltan 7, esto lo expresamos así:

y  +  7  = 12*x        (1)

La segunda condición establece que si Marta coloca los libros en número de 10 por estante le quedan 5 sin colocar, luego esto en lenguaje matemático se expresa así:

y  -   5   = 10*x     (2)

Ahora hemos obtenido un sistema de dos ecuaciones con dos incógnitas que se resuelve por cualquiera de los métodos conocidos, usaremos el método de sustitución.

Despejamos   y en la primera ecuación y lo sustituimos en la segunda, de esa forma obtendremos el valor de x

y  =  12*x  - 7

(12*x - 7 ) - 5  = 10*x

2*x  -12 = 0

2*x = 12

x = 6       la cantidad de estantes, y

y  =  12*x -7

y  =  72  -  7

y =  65    cantidad de libros

A direct variation function contains the points (2,14) and (4,38) which equation represents the function
Dmitry [639]
You are given two points on a line, and told that the function is "direct variation."  You can save a lot of time by recognizing that the y-intercept here is zero (0).  Thus, the line passes through the origin.

A line through (2,14) and (4,38) is NOT direct variation, because the line connecting those two points does NOT pass through the origin, and thus has a vertical intercept.
