Step-by-step explanation:
14 < 6×?
6×3=18
therefore anything above 3 multiplied by 6 would be greater in value than 14
Answer:
b = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
solve the second equation for 'y':
-3x + 1/2y = -3
add 3x to each side to get:
1/2y = 3x - 3
multiply all terms by 2 to eliminate the denominator to get:
y = 6x - 6
now compare '6x-6' with '6x-b'
you want both expressions to be equal because then there are an infinite number of solutions:
b = 6
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The Freeman family barbecued veggie burgers, corn cobs, and mushroom caps. 3/8 of the items barbecued are veggie burgers, and 1/3 of the items barbecued are corn cobs.
Let the total number of berbecued items be x. Therefore:
x = barbecued veggie burgers + barbecued corn cobs + barbecued mushroom caps
Barbecued veggie burgers = (3/8)x, barbecued corn cobs = (1/3)x, Let barbecued mushroom caps be y
Substituting:
x = (3/8)x + (1/3)x + y
Multiply through by 24
24x = 9x + 8x + 24y
24x = 17x + 24y
24y = 24x - 17x
24y = 7x
y = (7/24)x
barbecued mushroom caps = (7/24) of items
7/24 of the items barbecued are mushroom caps
