Answer:

1.75dollars - the value of each chair,  10.5 dollars - the value of each table

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of chair is x, the value of table is y. Then 6chairs cost 6x, 5 tables cost 5y. 6x+5y= 63

Then the value of 2 chairs is  2x,  for 3 tables  it is equal to 3y. 2x+3y=35

We have the system of equations6x+5y= 63 and 2x+3y=35

Multiply the second one by -3

-3(2x+3y)= -3*35

-6x-9y= -105.

Plus the first equation and the second one multiplied by -3 (the right side to the right side and the left side to the left side with sign= between them)

6x+5y-6x-9y= 63-105

-4y= -42

y=10.5 dollars - the value of a table

6x+5*10.5=63

6x= 63-52.5

6x=10.5

x=1.75dollars - the value of a chair

Lol what do I put so stuck
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

[See Below]

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the "Fraction" column, all the fractions in this column must add up to 1 (because the whole bag contains only Red, Green, Blue or Other coloured beads).

So we work out the sum of missing fractions: \frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{12} + \frac{3}{12} = \frac{4}{12} = \frac{1}{3}

And so we know the fractions in the missing boxes must add up to 1 - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3}.

This means that the number of blue and green beads is 2/3rds of the total number of beads in the bag. There are 12+4=16 blue+green beads so

\frac{2}{3} \times \text{Number of beads} = 16 \Rightarrow \text{Number of beads} = 24.

So if there are 24 beads in the bag, then the red beads are 1/12th of 24 which is 2 and the other beads are 1/4 of 24 which is 6.

Finally to complete the missing fractions: there are 12 blue beads and 24 in total so the fraction of blue beads is 12/24 = 1/2. Similarly, there are 4 green beads so the fraction of green beads is 4/24 = 1/6.

(I thought this was a very tricky question. Let me know in the comments if something doesn't make sense, or if you need more explanation on any part, or even if you spot an easier way to do it that I can't.)

Please help!! <br>what are the x-intercepts of this equation.
padilas [110]

The x intercepts are -2 and 5. First, you factor the equation and get (2x+4)(2x-10), then solve for the x's. If you have more problems like this, there's a great online calculator that can help with graphing. www.symbolab.com. It tells you the intercepts if you plug in the equations. Hope this helps!
