A foot is 12 in so a fraction could be 3/12
Answer:
a. x = (2 -3y)/(y+3)
b. x = -4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a.</h3>
Clear the fraction, collect x terms, divide by the coefficient of x.

__
<h3>b.</h3>
Put 2 where y is and do the arithmetic.
x = (2 -3(2))/(2 +3) = (2 -6)/5
x = -4/5
Let
x = pounds of peanuts
y = pounds of cashews
z = pounds of Brazil nuts.
The total pounds is 50, therefore
x + y + z = 50 (1)
The total cost is $6.60 per pound for 50 pounds of mixture.
The total is equal to the sum of the costs of the different nuts.
Because the cost for peanuts, cashews, and Brazil nuts are $3, $10, and $9 respectively, therefore
3x + 10y + 9z = 50*6.8
3x + 10y + 9z = 340 (2)
There are 10 fewer pounds of cashews than peanuts, therefore
x = y + 10 (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
y + 10 + y + z = 50
2y + z = 40 (4)
3(y + 10) + 10y + 9z = 340
13y + 9z = 310 (5)
From (4),
z = 40 - 2y (6)
Substitute (6) into (5).
13y + 9(40 - 2y) = 310
-5y = -50
y = 10
z = 40 - 2y = 40 - 20 = 20
x = y + 10 = 20
Answer:
Peanuts: 20 pounds
Cashews: 10 pounds
Brazil nuts: 20 pounds
Answer:
The limit does not exist
Step-by-step explanation
For this question you have to look at the function and see what y value does it approach as it gets closer and closer to x =2, from the left side it looks like it approaces 4 and from the left side it looks like it's approaching 1, since the limits from the left and right sides are not the same, the limit does not exist
