Answer:

16 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of oranges to apples is 4:3 which means that for every four oranges, there are 3 apples.

Since there are 12 apples in the basket, to find the number of oranges, set up a ratio.

4/3 = x/12 (x represents the number of oranges)

Cross multiply.

48 = 3x

Divide by 3.

x = 16

There are 16 oranges in the basket.

Hope that helps.

Have the same ratio as

A T-shirt department store cost 7.50.the total cost in dollar of a T-shirt is givien by the function C(a)=7.5a
tigry1 [53]

Given cost function C(a) = 7.5a, where a is the number of T-shirts.

Let us complete table.

We need to plug a=1,2,3,4 in above function to get the costs to complete the table.

For a =1

C(1)= 7.5(1) = 7.50

For a =2

C(2)= 7.5(2) = 15.00

For a =3

C(3)= 7.5(3) = 22.50

For a = 4

C(4)= 7.5(1) = 30.00

In order to find the common difference we need to find the diffrences of costs 15-7.50 = 7.50

22.50-15.00=7.50.

<h3>Therefore, common difference is 7.5.</h3>

a represents the number of T-shirts.

Domain of a is the numbers we can take for a.

So, we can take value for a as 0 or greater value.

Therefore, domain for a would be a is gerater than or equal to 0.

<h3>Domain : a≥0</h3>

Answer:

$71.88

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 20 percent from 29.95

20 of 29.95 is 5.99

29.95 - 5.99 = 23.96

3 ink cartridges are needed so

23.96 × 3 = 71.88

If 3x–4=2(y–2),find x/y, where y ≠0​
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Solving for x, we could simply say

3x-4=2%28y-2%29-->3x=2%28y-2%29%2B4-->x=%282%28y-2%29%2B4%29%2F3 or x=2%28y-2%29%2F3%2B4%2F3 .

Not wrong, but that could be "simplified" further, and we may need to do that before dividing by y .

It may be better to get rid of those brackets from the start:

3x-4=2%28y-2%29-->3x-4=2y-4-->3x=2y-->x=2y%2F3<-->x=%282%2F3%29y .

Now,

x%2Fy=%282%2F3%29y%2Fy --> highlight%28x%2Fy=2%2F3%29 , for y%3C%3E0

(which in the case of 3x-4=2%28y-2%29 is equivalent to x%3C%3E0 ).
