UNO [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

4:1

Step-by-step explanation:

a — b = 3

then a= 3+b

a + b = 5

3+b +b = 5

3+2b=5

2b=5-3

2b=2

b=1

a= 3+b

a=3+1=4

a:b= 4:1

Answer:

$8

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, Let us identify the variables in the functions.

The function states that for every n ball, the price is $0.80. Plus the $5.50.

Now that we know what the function stands for, we can substitute 10 into n, and remove the entrance fee of $5.50.

P=0.80n

This gives us $8, which means the price for 10 balls not including the entrance fee is $8.

x = 14/3
