Answer:

y = - \frac{28}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies inversely with x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 7 when x = - 4, then

7 = \frac{k}{-4} ( multiply both sides by - 4 )

- 28 = k

y = \frac{-28}{x} ← equation of variation

When x = 5 , then

y = \frac{-28}{5} = - \frac{28}{5}

Juliette [100K]

8p + 3a = 213 and p + a = 41 are the two required equations which will give us the number of phones and accessories sold by Levi.

<u>Solution:</u>

Levi earns a $8 commission for every phone he sells and a $3 commission for every accessory he sells.

On a given day, Levi made a total of $213 in commission from selling a total of 41 phones and accessories.  

We have been asked to write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of phones sold and the number of accessories sold. We also have to define the variables that you use to write the system.

Let us denote the number of phones as ‘p’ and number of accessories as ‘a’

So, we can write the following equations from the given data:

Given that levi made $ 213 commission

8p + 3a = 213

And,  Levi sold 41 phones and accessories. So we can frame a equation as follows:

p + a = 41

These two equations can be used and solved to determine the number of phones and accessories sold.

HOW TO WRITE IN DIVISION EXXPRESION I GIVE BRAINLEST
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

I believe that 4 1/2 divided by 6 is the correct answer.

(It is the same as the expression you wrote next to "Regular." It is correct because it does not include an equal sign and correctly expresses the problem.)

Note: Do not include any work below the arrow when writing in the "Expression" section.

Please let me know if this is incorrect.
