This is solved by setting up two equations and then using one to answer the other.
The first step (use what is given to set up the two separate equations)
We are looking for two numbers, let us call them X and Y.
We are told that X + Y = 59
We are also told that (9 more than) 9+ (4times the smaller number) 4Y is the bigger number X
Then we combine that into 9+4Y=X
so we now have two separate equations and we can use one to solve the other. Everywhere we have X in the first equation, we will fill in with the second equation
(9+4Y) +Y = 59 [then combine like terms]
9+5Y=59 [subtract 9 from both sides]
5Y=50 [divide both sides by 5 to isolate the Y]
Y=10 [now plug this into either equation to solve for X]
9+4(10)=X
9+40=X
<u><em>49=X and 10=Y</em></u>
The large box is less expensive per ounce.
large box small box
cost 4.16 2.38
content 32oz 14oz
cost/oz 0.13 0.17
*4.16/32 *2.38/14
The large box is less expensive than the small box. The large box is cheaper by 0.04 per ounce.
Answer:
b=-2aH
Step-by-step explanation:
H=-b/2a
Apply cross multiplication
H×2a=-b
2aH=-b
In the question you are to find positive b not negative b so you have to take negative b to the left hand side of the equation to become positive b and take 2aH to the right hand side to become -2aH
therefore b=-2aH
Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
Most people assume the toss of a coin is always a 50/50 probability, with a 50 percent chance it lands on heads, and a 50 percent chance it lands on tails
Answer:
this is really easy question is 5.09 because 5 is bigger than 0
