Answer:
Add 7 black beads
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we can only change the number of black beads, decide how many black beads you will add based on how many white beads there are.
There are three white beads in the picture.
Total beads we will have (<em>b</em> meaning black) b : 3
Ratio black : white beads 3 : 1
Use the common ratio, which is a number that both sides of the original ratio multiply by to get to the new ratio.
Find common ratio by dividing total by ratio white beads: 3/1 = 3
Multiply ratio black beads by common ratio. 3 X 3 = 9
<u>We need 9 black beads in total</u>.
Check answer
9 : 3 Both sides divisible by 3; reduce ratio
= 3 : 1 Correct ratio
There will be a total of 9 black beads, but we already have 2 black beads:
(9 total) - (2 original) = (7 to add)
Therefore we need to add 7 black beads.
Answer: the rate of the jet in still air is 685 mph and the rate of the jetstream is 75 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate of the jet in still air.
Let y represent the rate of the jet jetstream.
Distance = speed × time
Flying against the jetstream, a jet travels 3050 miles in 5 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x - y) mph. Therefore,
3050 = 5(x - y)
3050/5 = x - y
x - y = 610 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Flying with the jetstream, the same jet travels 3800 miles in 4 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x + y) mph. Therefore,
3800 = 4(x + y)
3800/5 = x + y
x + y = 760 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes
2x = 1370
x = 1370/2 = 685mph
Substituting x = 685 into equation 1, it becomes
685 - y = 610
y = 685 - 610 = 75mph
The standard form: Ax + By = C
3x - y = -6 YES - A = 3, B = -1, C = -6
3x + y = 6 YES - A = 3, B = 1, C = 6
x + 6y = 9 YES - A = 1, B = 6, C = 9
x - 6y = -9 YES - A = 1, B = -6, C = -9
Answer:
When x = -2, y = 3
When x = -1, y = 0
When x = 0, y = -3
When x = 1, y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
y = -3x - 3
Fill in the table using the following value for x
When x = -2
y = -3x - 3
y = -3(-2) - 3
y = 6 - 3
y = 3
When x = -2, y = 3
When x = -1
y = -3x - 3
y = -3(-1) - 3
y = 3 - 3
y = 0
When x = -1, y = 0
When x = 0
y = -3x - 3
y = -3(0) - 3
y = 0 - 3
y = -3
When x = 0, y = -3
When x = 1
y = -3x - 3
y = -3(1) - 3
y = -3 - 3
y = -6
When x = 1, y = -6
