12/18 = 8/x <=> 2/3 = 8/x <=> x = (3*8)/2 = 12;
Given:
1/2 loaf of bread
3 friends
1/2 ÷ 3 ⇒ 1/2 * 1/3 = 1*1 / 2*3 = 1/6
In dividing fractions, get the reciprocal of the divisor and multiply it to the dividend
In this item, we are not given with the choices for the ordered pair which could be the solution to the given equation. What can be done is to assume a value for one of the variables and solve for the other. To be able to find one that satisfies let x be equal to zero and substitute to the given equation.
-3(0) - 7y = 37
Simplifying,
-0 - 7y = 37
The value of y from the equation is 37/7. Thus, one of the ordered pairs that satisfies the equation is,
(0, 37/7)
Answer:
0.35, 0.40
