Given that Lana received 18 ounces of candy and Tom received 4 times as much candy as Lana received, then the number of candy Tom received is given by 4(18) = 72.

Now, given that Tom divided his candy evenly into 9 piles. Then the number of ounces of candy in each of Tom's piles is given by:

72/9 = 8 ounces.

13. For what value of b would the following system of equations have an infinite number of solutions?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

b=2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

9x+12y=21 -----> equation A

6x+8y=7b ----> equation B

we know that

If the system of equations have an infinite number of solutions then the equation A must be equal to the equation B

Multiply equation B by 1.5 both sides

1.5*[6x+8y[=7b*1.5

9x+12y=10.5b ----> equation C

Compare equation A and equation C

9x+12y=21 -----> equation A

9x+12y=10.5b ----> equation C

For the equations to be equal it must be fulfilled that

21=10.5b

solve for b

b=21/10.5

b=2

For what value of X is the rational expression below equal to zero?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Option D, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for that equation to equal to zero, you need the numerator (the top) to equal zero and the denominator (the bottom) to equal literally anything BUT ZERO.

To satisfy the first part we set the top binomial equal to zero.

x - 1 = 0

x = 0 + 1

x = 1

Plug in x = 1 to the bottom to see if it satisfies to second part; we're looking for everything but zero.

(x - 3)(x + 1)

(1 - 3)(1 + 1)

(- 2)(2) = - 4

Your answer is x = 1, option D.
