Answer:
y = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, y varies inversely as x.
Given:
Budget for tiles = 1,200
number of white tiles = 38
unit cost of white tiles = 12
budget for brown tiles = x
cost of white tiles = 38 x 12 = 456
The inequality would be:
Cost of brown tiles + cost of white tiles <u><</u> budget
x + 456 <u><</u> 1,200
solving the inequality:
x + 456 <u><</u> 1,200
<u> - 456 -456</u>
x <u><</u> 744
Mr. Jacobs can spend up to 744 for the brown tiles.
We want to divide 1/2 pound in 8 equal parts
1/2 dividend by 8/1 is the same as
1/2 multiplied by 1/8 =1•1/2•8=1/16
Each package will weigh 1/16 of a pound
Or 1 ounce since 1 pound = 16 oz

If you graph y=7x-9 and y=3x-1 the two lines will intersect at one point. That is how you graphically "solve" the system of equations.
Both of these lines are of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
So for y=7x-9, the slope is 7 and the y-intercept is -9
For y=3x-1, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is -1
....
The solution for this system occurs when both coordinates are equal to each other so we can say:
7x-9=3x-1 subtract 3x from both sides
4x-9=-1 add 9 to both sides
4x=8 divide both sides by 4
x=2, making y=3x-1 become:
y=3(2)-1=6-1=5, so the solution to the system of equations is:
(2,5)
