Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The next step to solve the system, would be to divide the second row by 3 and we would be left with: 3 * R2
[1 -5 3 0 -2
0 1 -7/3 0 4/3
0 0 1 2 -2]
Then what we will do is multiply row 3 by 7/3 and then subtract it from row 2, that is, R2 - 7/3 * R3, and it would look like this:
[1 -5 3 0 -2
0 1 0 14/3 -10/3
0 0 1 2 -2]
And these would be the next two steps in the process of solving the system.
Divide 4 to both sides of the equation
To satisfy his grandmother’s request, Dave must mix 3/5 cups of fruit for a single cup of nuts.
7/15 ÷ 3/5 =
= 7/15 * 5/3 =
= 7/3 * 1/3 = (after simplifying)
= <u>7/9</u>
Correct answer: A
Just keep in mind that dividing one fraction by another fraction is as much as multiplying the same fraction by an inverse of the second one.
