Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. divide each number by 6 and you get 4:3 answer c
2. 1x+4x=45 (the ratios give you how many of each you have)
5x=45 so x=9 that is the smallest number
3. percent means out of 100 so 490/100 4.9
4 percent means out of 100 so .5/100 5/1000 = .005
The answer is approximately 0.14
2a + 3b = 6 --> Equation 1
5a + 2b = 4 --> Equation 2
Equation 1 * 5 --> 10a + 15b = 30
Equation 2 * 2 --> 10a + 4b = 8
Equation 1 - Equation 2 --> 11b = 22 --> b = 2
Sub b=2 in Equation 1 (or 2, either works):
2a + 3b = 6
2a + 3(2) = 6
2a + 6 = 6
2a = 0
a = 0
b = 2, a = 0
Because the lines are parallel, 75 is equal to 11x-2
75=11x-2
77=11x
x=7
