Here you have a system of 2 equations and 2 unknowns. An easy way to solve this type is to isolate one of the variables.
12a + 2b = 8
2b = 8 - 12a
b =
b = 4 - 6a
Now plug 4 - 6a into equation 1 to solve for a.
a + 5(4 - 6a) = 19
a + 20 - 30a = 19
-29a = -1
a = 1/29 (answer)
Now plug a into the equation for b
b= 4 - 6(1/29)
b= 110/29 (answer)
Well an example is 4x3x3 which equals 36 which is even
Answer:
A. y=1/3x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
When finding a line that is perpendicular to another line, all you have to do is find the "opposite reciprocal" of the slope. In this case that means writing the slope as the fraction -3/1, and then flipping the fraction over (1/-3) and taking away the negative sign which gets you 1/3 for the slope of your new line. Now, all you have of your new equation is the slope. You need to take your new equation (y=1/3x+b) and plug in the x and y coordinates to that equation, and then solve for the last variable which is b. That solving process goes as follows:
3=1/3*6+b
3=2+b
1=b
now you can replace the b with 1 in your equation to get your final answer of y=1/3x+1
Answer: The cost of each game is $2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find the equations for each friend:
Friend 1:
Pays $3 for the shoes, and plays 3 games, then if X is the cost of each game, Friend 1 pays a total of:
$3 + 3*X
Friend 2:
This friend buys a soda for $0.50, and he plays 4 games, remember that the cost of each game was X. then this friend pays:
$0.50 + 4*X
And we know that both friends pay the exact same amount, then we can write:
$3 + 3*X = $0.50 + 4*X
And solve this for X.
We need to isolate X, then we can move all the terms with X to the right, and all the terms without X to the left:
$3 - $0.50 = 4*X - 3*X
$2.50 = (4 - 3)*X = X
This means the cost of each game is $2.50
Write the first ratio as 11/100 and set it equal to 22/n.
since 11 x 2=22 you can multiply 100 x 2 and you'll get 200.
*Check*: 11% of 200=22
