B=cost per boquet
v=cost per vase

3b+5v=25.75
8b+2v=29.00

use eliminateion
divide 2nd equation by 2
4b+v=14.50
multiply it by -5 and add to other equation to eliminate v

-20b-5v=-72.5
<span><u>3b+5v=25.75 +</u></span><u />
-17b+0v=-46.75

-17b=-46.75
divide both sides by -17
b=2.75

a boquet costs $2.75

Answer:

a) 15 ÷ 2/3=

=1 5 x 3/2=45/2

b) 3 × 1/8 × 6/9

=1/8 x 2(  Simplify 3 with 9 remainder 3, reduce

6 with 3 remainder 2)

=1/4

c) 3 3/5 ÷ 2 2/5

=18/5 : 12/5

=18/5 . 5/12

=3/2

d) 2 1/12 × 1 1/5

= 25/12 . 6/5

=5/2

The equation y= 1/2 x +4 is graphed below.which equation would intersect this line at (4, 6)?
Anton [14]

Answer:

we have the equation y = (1/2)*x + 4.

now, any equation that passes through the point (4, 6) will intersect this line, so if we have an equation f(x), we must see if:

f(4) = 6.

if f(4) = 6, then f(x) intersects the equation y = (1/2)*x + 4 in the point (4, 6).

If we want to construct f(x), an easy example can be:

f(x) = y = k*x.

such that:

6 = k*4

k = 6/4 = 3/2.

then the function

f(x) = y= (3/2)*x intersects the equation  y = (1/2)*x + 4 in the point (4, 6)

Alika [10]

x = ×-3/4

because you hace the variable x and you do not know the number of fruit snacks he ate and you need to have the same variables to properly find the answer.
