N*(21/100)=(700/100)
n=(700/100)/(21/100)
n=(700/100)*(100/21)
n=700/21
n=33+1/3
So <em><u>thirty three</u></em> $0.21 pencils can be purchased for $7.00.
Answer:
x=5 and y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+5y=5
-(7x+5y=25)
-4x=-20
x=5
plug 5 into one of the equations. 3(5)+5y=5
y= -2
All you have to is divide two consecutive terms to calculate the common ratio
1/4 divided by 5/12 = 1/4 * 12/5 = 12/20 = 3/5
