One pound of swordfish costs as much as 1.5 pounds of salmon. Mrs. O pays $39 for 2 pounds of salmon and 3 pounds of swordfish.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The ratio of the amount for swordfish to the amount of salmon is 6:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price for 1 pound of swordfish = The price of 1.5 pound of salmon

So, On this relation

The price for ( 1 × 2 ) pound of swordfish = The price of ( 1.5× 2 ) pound of salmon

i.e The price for 2 pound of swordfish = The price of 3 pound of salmon

Now According to question

Mrs. O pay the total money for 2 pounds of swordfish and 3 pound of salmon = $ 39

Let the money she pay for swordfish = 2 sw

And The money she pay for salmon = 3 sa

∵, The total money she pay for both = $ 39

I.e 2 sw + 3 sa = 39

As 2 sw = 3 sa

So, 3 sa + 3 sa = 39

Or, 6 sa = 39

or, sa = $\frac{39}{6}$ = $\frac{13}{2}$

∴ sw = $\frac{13}{2}$ × $\frac{3}{2}$

or, sw = $\frac{39}{4}$

Now, the ratio of the amount for swordfish to the amount of salmon = $\frac{\frac{39}{4}}{\frac{13}{2}}$

I.e The ratio = $\frac{6}{4}$

Hence The ratio of the amount for swordfish to the amount of salmon is 6:4

If the point (a,3) lies on the graph of the equation 5x + y = 8 then a =?

Contact [7]

Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point (a, 3) is on the line: 5x + y = 8.

Any point on the line satisfies the equation.

So, (a, 3) should satisfy the equation 5x + y = 8

Substituting x = a and y = 3, we get:

5(a) + 3 = 8

$\implies 5a = 5$

⇒ a = 1

Therefore, (1, 3) is the point on the line.
