true
oops, i read it wrong LOL, it's true. .65 is less than .75
Answer:
Answer is A U B = {3,5,7}
5-3(1/2x+2)=-7
-3(1/2x+2)=-7-5
(1/2x+2)=4
1/2x=2
x=4
just to give u an idea
Elimination:
3x - 9y = 3
6x - 3y = -24
3x - 9y = 3
18x - 9y = -72
(subtract)
-15x = 75
÷ -15
x = -5
(3 × -5) - 9y = 3
-15 - 9y = 3
+ 15
-9y = 18
÷ -9
y = -2
Substitution:
6x - 3y = -24
+ 3y
6x = -24 + 3y
÷ 6
x = 4 + 0.5y
3(4 + 0.5y) - 9y = 3
12 + 1.5y - 9y = 3
12 - 7.5y = 3
- 12
-7.5y = -9
÷ -7.5
y = 1.2
x = 4 + (0.5 × 1.2)
x = 4 + 0.6
x = 4.6
So this one didn't fail as much, but I got different numbers. If you have to give in values, I'd give in the values from the elimination because I don't trust myself when it comes to the substitution
It is easier to write the equivalent ratios first, then use that information to find the missing values.
3. ratio: cars/trucks = 3/5, or trucks/cars = 5/3. Missing value: 6/3*5 = 10.
4. ratio: TVs/Computers = 2/7, or Computers/TVs = 7/2. Missing value: 21/7*2 = 6.
