Answer:
pen = $1.20, pencil = $0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = pen
let y = pencil
create system of equations:
3x + 6y = 6.60 [can be simplified to be x + 2y = 2.20]
5x + 8y = 10.00
substitution method:
x = 2.2 - 2y
5(2.2 - 2y) + 8y = 10
11 - 10y + 8y = 10
-2y = -1
y = 1/2
solve for 'x':
3x + 6(1/2) = 6.6
3x + 3 = 6.6
3x = 3.6
x = 1.2
Answer:
first get the total ratio; 2 + 5 = 7
so the fraction of blue marbles is 5/7
then assume the number of total marbles to be k
then use the expression;
5/7*k = 65
7*5/7 * k = 65*7
5k =455
5/5k = 455/5
k = 91
then calculate the number if red marbles from;
x = 2/7*91
x = 26
Therefore there are 26 red marbles.
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
A vertical line will have the equation in terms of x. Any point you choose on line <em>l </em>will have an x-coordinate of 3.
