Answer:

Part A: x÷3=$499

Part B: $1497

Step-by-step explanation:

A: Because to find a fraction of somthing we have to divide, so in this case we divided the original price by 3 to get $499.

B:To find the original price we have to multiply the one third of it ($499) by 3 to get the original amount.

How many solutions does the system have?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

A Exactly one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

\left \{ {{6x-3y=9} \atop {6x+y=9}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{6x-3y=9} \atop {-6x-y=-9}} \right\\\\Then, \\\\-4y=0\\\\\\ y=0\\\\

Putting y=0 at second equation, we have

-6x=-9\\\\x=\frac{9}{6} =\frac{3}{2}

The unique solution is (\frac{3}{2} , 0)

If 3 workers can paint a room in 2 hours, then approximately how long does it take 4 workers to paint the same room? Assume the
Olin [163]

It takes 1.5 hours for 4 workers to paint the same room

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that 3 workers can paint a room in 2 hours

To find: Time taken for 4 workers to paint the same room

Assume the time needed to paint the room is inversely proportional to the number of worker

time $ \propto \frac{1}{\text { number of workers }}\\\\time =k \times \frac{1}{\text { number of workers }}

Where, "k" is the constant of proportionality

<em><u>3 workers can paint a room in 2 hours</u></em>

Substitute number of workers = 3 and time = 2 hours

time =k \times \frac{1}{\text { number of workers }}\\\\2 = k \times \frac{1}{3}\\\\k = 6

Therefore,

\text {time}=6 \times \frac{1}{\text { number of workers }}

To find time taken for 4 workers to paint the same room, substitute number of workers = 4 in above expression

time = 6 \times \frac{1}{4} = 1.5

Thus it takes 1.5 hours for 4 workers to paint the same room
