U/9 = 8/12 u = 6

Step 1: Cancel the common factor (4)

u = 2
—- —-
9 3


Step 2: multiply both sides by 9


9u 2 * 9
—- = ——-
9 3

Step 3: simplify

2 *9 = 18

18 ÷ 3 = 6

u = 6

There are 16 ounces in a pound. If Jack has 64 ounces of pasta to make for a dinner party, how many pounds does he have? If he h
Natalka [10]
Hey there! :) How are you? Basically what you said is right. 

Question 1: There are 16 oz (ounces) in a pound, so we do 64/16= 4 lbs (pounds). 

Question 2: If Jack has 3 pounds of pasta, that would mean he has 48 ounces, since 1 pound is 16 oz, so 16*3= 48 ounces. 

Hoped I helped! Have a nice day, and keep smiling! :)

A publisher needs to send many books to a local book retailer and will send the books in a combination of small and large boxes.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Answer:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.

Where xx is the number of small boxes sent and yy is the number of large boxes sent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be xx the number of small boxes sent and yy the number of large boxes sent.

Since each small box can hold 20 books (20x20x ), each large box can hold 30 books (30y30y )and altogether can hold a total of 280 books, we can write the following equation to represent this:

20x+30y=28020x+30y=280

According to the information provided in the exercise, there were 4 times as many large boxes sent as small boxes. This can be represented with this equation:

y=4xy=4x

Therefore, the system of equation that be used to determine the number of small boxes sent and the number of large boxes sent, is:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.

40% of students on a field trip love the museum. If there are 20 students on the field trip, how many love the museum??
MariettaO [177]
Since there are 20 students on the field trip. Then 20 is the 100% total. Thus, to find how many people love the museum, we can simply multiply the total number of people by the percentage of interest, namely 40%

20*0.4 = 8
So, 8 people love the museum.

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Equation of a Straight Line

2.2     Solve   2x-5y-5  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  2x-5y-5  = 0 and calculate its properties
