The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is:
; p = 12 ⇒ b
Step-by-step explanation:
Direct proportion means that two (or more) quantities increase or decrease in the same ratio
- y = k x is the equation of direct proportion, where k is the constant of proportionality
is the another way to write a proportion
The number of pencils and the cost of them is increased together or decreased together
∴ The number of the pencils and their costs are in direct proportion
- By using the 2nd rule above
∵ The cost of the 7 pencils is $1.68
∵ The cost of p pencils is $2.88
∴
The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is:
∵
- By using cross multiplication
∴ p × 1.68 = 7 × 2.88
∴ 1.68 p = 20.16
- Divide both sides by 1.68
∴ p = 12
The value of variable p is 12

−2(6x+5)=74
Simplify both sides of the equation.
−2(6x+5)=74
−2 x 6x−2 x 5=74
−12x−10=74
Add 10 to both sides.
−12x−10=74
+10 +10
−12x=84
Divide both sides by -12.
−12x
=
84

Mr Wellborn arrives at work at 7:50 am. If you take 60 minutes away from 8:40 its 7:40 but take away 10 minutes and its 7:50.
Answer:
If it is sediment: A sediment trap is a T-shaped pipe configuration designed to catch any debris in a gas line before it goes into the appliance.
Or if it was a typo and its supposed to say segment:line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct end points, and contains every point on the line between its endpoints.
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because of the help of google.
Let us make a list of all the details we have
We are given
The cost of each solid chocolate truffle = s
The cost of each cream centre chocolate truffle = c
The cos to each chocolate truffle with nuts = n
The first type of sweet box that contains 5 each of the three types of chocolate truffle costs $41.25
That is 5s+5c+5n = 41.25 (cost of each type of truffle multiplied by their respective costs and all added together)
The second type of sweet box that contains 10 solid chocolate trufles, 5 cream centre truffles and 10 chocolate truffles with nuts cost $68.75
That is 10s+5c+10n = $68.75
The third type of sweet box that contains 24 truffles evenly divided that is 12 each of solid chocolate truffle and chocolate truffle with nuts cost $66.00
That is 12s+12n=$66.00
Hence option C is the right set of equations that will help us solve the values of each chocolate truffle.
