Answer: Cost of one hosta = $11

Cost of one pot of ivy = $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the the cost of one hosta be represented by x.

Let the cost of one pot of ivy be represented by y.

The information given in the question can be formed into an equation as:

8x + 4y = 132 ............ i

2x + 2y = 44 ............. ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 4

16x + 8y = 264 ........ iii

8x + 8y = 176 ........ iv

Subtract iv from iii

8x = 88

x = 88/8

x = 11

One hosta cost $11

From equation ii

2x + 2y = 44

2(11) + 2y = 44

22 + 2y = 44

2y = 44 - 22

2y = 22

y = 22/2

y = 11

One pot of ivy cost $11

A is inversely proportional to b. If a=7.2 when b=-4, what will a equal when b=6?
Tpy6a [65]

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

a \:  \:  \alpha  \:  \:  \frac{k}{b}

where k is the constant of proportionality

When a = 7.2 , b = -4

So we have

7.2=  \frac{k}{ - 4}

k = 7.2 × - 4

k = - 28.8

So the formula for the variation is

a =  -  \frac{28.8}{b}

When

b = 6

That's

a =  -  \frac{28.8}{6}

We have the final answer as

<h3>a = - 4.8</h3>

Hope this helps you
