For this item, we may let x be the number or liters of apple juice present in the ginger ale. The total volume of the punch then becomes
total volume = 2 + x
Then, considering that 75% of this is apple juice,
x/(2 + x) = 0.75
x = 0.75(2 + x) = 1.5 + 0.75x
x = 1.5 + 0.75x
Also, for this item, the vaue of x is equal to 6 liters.
7. y=-3/2x+8 (3rd answer choice)
substitute
-4=-3/2(8)+b
-4=-24/2 +b
-4=-12+b
+12 both sides
8=b
so equation would be...
y=-3/2x+8 (3rd answer choice)
8. y=-5x-17 (2nd answer choice)
substitute
-2=-5(-3)+b
-2=15+b
-15 both sides
-17=b
so the equation would be...
y=-5x-17 (2nd answer choice)
check your work by substituting each (x,y) value into the final equations if you want. hope this helps :))
X+y = 12
x-y = 3
x = 3+y
Substitute it in 1st equation,
3+y+y=12
2y = 9
y = 4.5
Substitute it in 1st eq.,
x = 12-4.5 = 7.5
So, the two numbers are 7.5 & 4.5
Hope this helps!
Answer:
I think they're both always but I'm not sure
14 is the answer sorry if I get it wrong :/
