The change of the cost changes when the pounds of ham changes. When the pounds of ham is 0, it costs 0 dollars. When the pounds of ham is 3, it costs 12 dollars. The cost changes consistently with the pounds of ham. They change together. Every time the pounds of ham goes up by 3, the cost goes up by 12.
Which equations? I think you forgot to post a picture.
Answer:
Total laps = 10d
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = Carl's laps
d = Daria's laps
e = Erin's laps
c = 3d
c = e/2
c + d + e = totals laps
We can insert 3d in place of c in the third equation
3d + d + e = total laps
Also, e/2 equals 3d
e/2 = 3d
Multiply both sides by 2
(e/2 = 3d)2
e = 6d
Insert the new e
3d + d + 6d = 10d = totals laps
Answer:
x + 12 = 4 * (x - 15) --> x = 24
