Let s and g represents the numbers of suits and gowns produced.
The number of zippers used is 2s+g.
The number of buttons used is 5s+8g.
In order to use all of the available zippers and buttons, we must have ...
- 2s + g = 171
- 5s + 8g = 576
Cramer's rule tells you the solution to the system
Is given by
- x = (bf-ey)/(bd-ea)
- y = (cd-fa)/(bd-ea)
Using this rule on the equations for zippers and buttons, we have
... s = (1·576 -8·171)/(1·5 -8·2) = -792/-11 = 72
... g = (171·5 -2·576)/-11 = -297/-11 = 27
72 suits and 27 gowns can be made from available zippers and buttons.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 4x + 1 is not a direct variation. Direct variations have the form y = kx. So y = 4x would be a direct variation (k=4), but not y = 4x+1
Answer:
x < 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3x+2x = 5x
2. 5x - 8 < 22
3. 22+ 8 =30
4. 5x < 30
5. 30/5 = 6
6. x < 6
Answer:
x <5
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4 x + 3) < 5 x + 21
Distribute
8x +6 < 5x +21
Subtract 5x from each side
8x -5x +6 < 5x-5x+21
3x +6 < 21
Subtract 6 from each side
3x+6-6 <21-6
3x <15
Divide each side by 3
3x/3 <15/3
x <5
