Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 15 = 4x - 12
3x - 15 = -12
3x = 3
x = 1
y = 7(1) - 15
y = 7 - 15
y = -8
(1, -8)
Like all problems that involve images within the question, we should definitely try to draw this out. In the picture above, I have done this.
Now, we can see that this is just a simple proportion problem. For every 2.5 cm of height of the flower, we are 2 cm from the opening, or aperture. For every 20 cm of height, how far are we? We can set up the problem like this:
20 ............2.5
-------- = ---------
...x ............. 2
where x is the unknown distance to the aperture from the flower. Now, we just need to get x by itself. A typical way of solving something like this is by doing "butterfly multiplication" which is really just a shortcut haha. Anyway, I can rewrite that equation ^ as:
20×2 = 2.5 × x
Then, to solve for x, we would divide both sides by 2.5. (If you don't know why that is, please let me know and I'll elaborate).
We would then have:
20×2
------- = x
2.5
Which then simplifies to:
x = 16
Try using the same logic for your second question, and if you get stuck, I'd be happy to help! please let me know if any of this doesn't make sense. :)

Answer:
zero solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
The first inequality has a boundary line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 9. Shading is above the boundary line.
The second inequality has a parallel boundary line with a slope of 3 and a y-intercept somewhat lower, at -1. Shading is below this boundary line.
There is a gap between the shaded areas, so no points will be solutions to both inequalities.
If $600=6 tons
$600=6*2000
$600=12,000
12000/$600=$20
It’s $20 per pound
