16 = 2/5
16 ÷ 2 = 2/5 ÷ 2/1
8 = 1/5
8 * 5 = 1/5 * 5
40 = 5/5
You started the party with 40 brownies
Answer:
3/2 pages per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
1 : 2/3
= 3/2 : 1
G=gas
w=bottle of water
8g + 2w = 29
12g + 4w = 45
I'm going to use elimination to cancel out the variable w by multiplying the first equation by -2.
-16g - 4w = -58
12g + 4w = 45
-4g = -13
/-4 /-4
g = 3.25
Now plug it into an equation, any equation.
8 (3.25) + 2w = 29
26 +2w=29
w=1.5
Now to check, plug it into both equations if you want.
12 (3.25) + 4 (1.5)=45
39 + 6=45
One bottle of water is $1.50, while one gallon of gas is $3.25.
Answer:
<h2>a = - 4.8</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of a when b=6 we must first find the relationship between them.
The statement
a is inversely proportional to b is written as

where k is the constant of proportionality
When a = 7.2 , b = -4
So we have

k = 7.2 × - 4
k = - 28.8
So the formula for the variation is

When
b = 6
That's

We have the final answer as
<h3>a = - 4.8</h3>
Hope this helps you
