The question above makes use of the concept of ratio and proportion in a form of scaling. If we let x and y be the true length and width, the equations that best describe them are,
0.5 cm / 1 inch = 2.5 cm / x in ; x = 5 in
0.5 cm / 1 inch = 4.75 cm / y in ; y = 9.5 in
Therefore, the true length and width of Rueben's flag is 5 in and 9.5 in, respectively.
Answer:
x=2 and y= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simultaneous equation. To solve this type of equation, there are three methods; substitution, Elimination and Graphical.
But here, we would be using the substitution method.
3x-y=9 Equation 1
2x-y=7. Equation 2
Getting y from equation 2, we have
-y= 7-2x
Multiply both sides by -
y= 2x-7 Equation 3
Substituting y for 2x-7 in equation 1, we have
3x- (2x-7)=9
3x-2x+7=9
x+7=9
x=9-7
x=2
Substituting x as 2 in equation 3
y=2x-7
y= 2(2)-7
y= 4-7
y= -3
