Answer:
One solution: x=2.4, y=0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
x-2y=2
y=-2x+5
x-2(-2x+5)=2
x+4x-10=2
5x=2+10=12
x=12:5=2.4
y=-2x+5=-2*2.4+5=-4.8+5=0.2
Rice: .5(8) = 4kg (4000 g)
Popcorn: 150(12) = 1800 g
Total mass = mass of rice (4000 g) + mass of popcorn (1800g)
So...
Total mass = 5,800 g (or 5.8 kg)
Set up a proportion.
x = length of actual wall
1/30=7/x
Cross multiply: x = 210 inches
Let the number be x
(3/7) x = t
I can't think of anything useful to add to this. How about an example?
Let x = 49
(3/7) x = t
(3/7) * 49 = t seven will go into 49
3 * 49 = t
t = 147
