Hello there.
Question: <span>Mr. Nicolas is putting up strings of blue and white lights for the holidays. The ratio of blue to white lights is 5 to 6. If he has 77 strings, how many strings are white lights?
Answer: 5:6
Add the numbers:
5 + 6 = 11
Divide this number by the total:
77/11 = 7
Multiply values by this number:
5 x 7 = 35
6 x 7 = 42
To check:
35 + 42 = 77.
Therefore your answer is 42.
</span>Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^
ANSWER
The approximate solution is

EXPLANATION
The point of intersection of the two lines is the solution of the linear systems represented by the graph.
From the graph we can determine that each box is 2 units.
From the graph, when we start at O and count two boxes to the right and half box down, we obtain the point of intersection of the two lines to be

Note that since each box is two units, half way between the boxes gives one unit.
If he gives ALL of the cookies away..
3 5/6 = 6/6 + 6/6 + 6/6 + 5/6
6+6+6+5 = 23
Paul has 23 friends. (if he takes 1/6, then he has 22)
hope this helps
Answer:
x=(-2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(9x+13)^2=49
√(9x+13)^2=√49
9x+13=7
9x+13-13=7-13
9x=-6
9x÷9=-6/9
x=-6/9
-6/9=-2/3
