I'm pretty sure if the answer accepts decimals, if two apples = 175 grams, then one apple equals 87.5 grams, and if we want an apple that equals four grams, it would be less than one apple so we would divide the grams of one apple till it equals 4, therefore 87.5/4 = 21.875
P.S. im not entirely sure this is right im just trying to help :)
Ratio of Nickel to Zinc:
( 2/7 ) = ( Nickel /4.9)
Nickel = 1.4 lbs.
Ratio of Copper to Zinc:
( 9/7 ) = ( Copper /4.9)
Copper = 6.3 lbs.
Alloy = Zinc + Nickel +
Copper
Alloy = 4.9 lbs. + 1.4 lbs.
+ 6.3 lbs.
Alloy = 12.6 lbs.
Hope
this answer will be a good h<span>elp for you.</span>
Set The Numbers On The Side Equal To The Equation. Use Inverse Operation And Divide Since The X Is Used In Multiplication.
With the given information, we can create several equations:
120 = 12x + 2y
150 = 10x + 10y
With x being the number of rose bushes, and y being the number of gardenias.
To find the values of the variables, we can use two methods: Substitution or Elimination
For this case, let us use elimination. To begin, let's be clear that we are going to be adding these equations together. Therefore, in order to get the value of one variable, we must cancel one of them out - it could be x or y, it doesn't matter which one you decide to cancel out. Let's cancel the x out:
We first need to multiply the equations by numbers that would cause the x's to cancel out - and this can be done as follows:
-10(120 = 12x + 2y)
12(150 = 10x + 10y) => Notice how one of these is negative
Multiply out:
-1200 = -120x - 20y
+ 1800 = 120x + 120y => Add these two equations together
---------------------------------
600 = 100y
Now we can solve for y:
y = 6
With this value of y known, we can then pick an equation from the beginning of the question, and plug y in to solve for x:
120 = 12x + 2y => 120 = 12x + 2(6)
Now we can solve for x:
120 = 12x + 12 => 108 = 12x
x = 9
So now we know that x = 9, and y = 6.
With rose bushes being x, we now know that the cost of 1 rose bush is $9.
With gardenias being y, we now know that the cost of 1 gardenia is $6.
Answer:
100000(1.04)^t=2[110000(1.04)^t
