Answer:
Answer is in the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know exactly word from word what your choices look like...
but I can describe per each box what happened in my own words:
First box: They multiply first equation by 3 and the second equation by 2 to obtain the equations in that first box.
Second box: They subtracted the two equations in the first box to obtain 1x+0y=2 which means 1x=2 or x=2 (this is called solving a system by elimination
Third box: They used their first original equation (before the multiplication manipulation) and plug in the value they got for x which was 2 giving them 3(2)-2y=10
Fourth box: They simplified the equation 3(2)-2y=10 by performing the multiplication 3(2) giving them 6-2y=10
Fifth box: They subtracted 6 on both sides giving them -2y=4
Sixth box: They divided both sides by -2 giving them y=-2
I will summarize then what I wrote above:
1st box: Multiplication Property of Equality
2nd box: Elimination
3rd box: Substitution (plug in)
4th box: Simplifying
5th box: Subtraction Property of Equality
6th box: Division Property of Equality
The question is:
A cake recipe calls for 550 grams of flour. About how many pounds of flour do you need? Use the conversion factors (1 ounce)/(28.4 grams) and (1 pound)/(16 ounces).
Answer:
About 1.2 pounds of flour is needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the cake recipe calls for 550 grams, we want to determine about how many pounds of flour we need.
This simply means we want to convert 550 grams to pounds.
First, we were given (1 ounce)/(28.4 grams)
This implies that
1/28.4 = x/550 ..............................(1)
Where x is 550 grams in ounce.
Solving (1)
28.4x = 550
=> x = 550/28.4
≈ 19.3662
That is 550 grams is equal to 19.3662 ounce
Next, we are given the ratio (1 pound)/(16 ounce). We then convert 19.3662 ounce to pound
Let y be 19.3662 ounce in pound
=> 1/16 = y/19.3662
16y = 19.3662
y = 19.3662/16
≈ 1.2
That is 19.3662 ounce is equal to 1.2 pounds.
Therefore, 550 grams is equal to 1.2 pounds, and it is the amount of flour needed.
Answer:
- 
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope (gradient) and c the y- intercept )
Given
2y = - 3x - 8 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = -
x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form
with gradient = -
