Answer: The ration for 27:71, would be 3/8. Hope this helps!
(2x+1)(x+5) is the answer.
Answer:
(x, y) = (4, 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the second equation to write an expression for y.
y = 10 - 1/4x . . . . subtract 1/4x from the given 2nd equation
Now, substitute that for y in the first equation:
1/2x + 1/3(10 -1/4x) = 5
1/2x + 10/3 -1/12x = 5 . . . . eliminate parentheses
You can work this a couple of ways from here. One is to multiply by 12 to eliminate fractions. Another is to work with the numbers as they are. We'll do that, because we don't get enough practice doing arithmetic with fractions.
5/12x = 5/3 . . . . . subtract 10/3
x = (5/3)/(5/12) = 12/3 = 4
From above, we can use our expression for y:
y = 10 - 1/4·4 = 9
The solution is (x, y) = (4, 9).
Answer:
$30, $75, $45
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up an equation, where x is an unknown value:
2x+5x+3x=150
10x = 150
x=15
Now that we know what x is, we can plug x in to solve for 2x, 5x, and 3x:
2x=2*15=30
5x=5*15=75
3x=3*15=45
Therefore, the answer is $30, $75, $45
