I think the perimeter is 64. If you divided the 4 sides of the window by 256, you get 64. Sorry if it's not right. I hope it is. c;
Y = kx
k = y/x
k = 2/12
k = 1/6
so when x = 12
y = kx
y = 1/6(5)
y = 5/6
answer
when x = 5 y = 5/6
To find the X value of the solution, you would set the two equations equal to each other bu substitution:
if <span>y = -2x + 5 and y = 3x - 2,
</span>-2x + 5 must be equal to 3x - 2
solve for x... you should get 7/5
then, plug that into one of the original equations as X and you would get the Y value, 11/5
This point, (7/5,11/5) is where the two lines cross
Lets put everything into decimal form
2.5=2.5
3/4=0.75
107%=1.07
Order:
0.75, 1.07, 2.5
3/4, 107%, 2.5
You're going to use cross multiplication.
1 gal x 21 miles = 25miles x x
21 miles = 25x
Divide each side by 25 to get x alone
21/25 = 0.84, which is your x value.
