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

Answer:

1).  The constant of variation is 7

2).  w = 6 for the given values of x and y

Step-by-step explanation:

"Varies jointly" tells us that y is a direct result of a mathematic operation involving x and w.  We will assume y is directly prorportional to x and w, in the sense that we can find a multiplicative relationship of the form y=Kxw, where K is the constant of variation.

We are given one data point:  y=-42 where x is 2 and w is -3.  Let's put those values into our trrial expression:

y=Kxw

-42=K(2)(-3)

-42 = -6K

K = 7

<h2>The expression becames  <u>y = 7xw</u></h2>

The constant of variation is 7.

The value of w for y=3 and x=(1/14) would be:

 

  y=7xw

  3 = 7*(1/14)*w

3 = (1/2)*w

<h2><u>w = 6</u></h2>

The area of the rectangular floor in Tamara's room is 95 5/6 square
White raven [17]
Area of rectangle is width × length
which means area of rectangular floor in Tamara's room = width of room × length of room
-> 95 ⅚ sq feet = 8 ⅓ feet × length of
->(95 + 5/6) sq feet = (8 + 1/3) feet × length of room
->575/6 sq feet = 25/3 feet × length of room
length of room = (575/6)/(25/3)
= 575 × 3/6 × 25)
= 23/2
= 11 ½ feet
