Answer:50.97 or 51 rounded
Step-by-step explanation: hope this helps
<span>2y = x + 3 then x = 2y - 3
5y = x - 7 then x = 5y + 7
so
</span>2y - 3 = 5y + 7
2y - 5y = 7 + 3
-3y = 10
y = -10/3
y = -3 1/3
<span>2y = x + 3
</span>2 (-10/3) = x + 3
-20/3 - 3 =x
-29/3 = x
-9 2/3 =x
or
x = -9 2/3
solutions: x = -9 2/3 and y = -3 1/3
To answer the question we need to know if 35 out of 50 states is equal or greater than 3/4 if that is the case, the Constitution will be ammended, and that is represented like this:
35/50 >= 3/4
that inequality is saying that 35 states out of 50 is equal or greater than 3/4, lets simplify and modify the fractions to compare easily:
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>now we need to find the least common multiplier of 10 and 4 to take the fractions to a common denominator and compare easy. Lets multiply numerator and denominator for a correct number to get the fractions to denominator common 20, the lcm:
7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>(2/2)(7/10) >= (5/5)(3/4)
2*7/2*10 >= 5*3/5*4
14/20 >= 15/20
we can see that the inequality does not hold, so,
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>does not hold either, therefore the Constitution cannot be ammended
Answer:
14 gallons....$42
Step-by-step explanation:
The car requires one gallon every 32 miles...
The car requires c gallons for 448 miles
c = 448 × 1 / 32
= 14 gallons..
One gallon = $3
Fourteen gallons = ??
14 × 3 / 1 = $42
