x = number of packages he bought
y = number of popsicles in each package
Here are the two equations:
xy = 54
x = 3 + y
Using the substitution method, you can solve them to find x and y.
(3 + y)y = 54,
3y + y^2 = 54
y^2 + 3y - 54 = 0
Solve the quadriatic equation:
(y +9)(y - 6) = 0
y = -9, 6.
Plug y into: xy = 54
x(-9) = 54, x = -6.
x(6) = 54, x = 9.
So he bought 9 packages of popsicles, bc you can't bye -6 packages.
Answer:
3/5=12/20
12/16=6/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=23, y=157
Step-by-step explanation:
23 and x are on equalivent sides of the rhombus so they are equal. To solve for y you have to multiple 23 by 2. Getting 46 you subtract that from 360 to get 314. Dividing 314/2 you get 157.
The correct answer would be, 300,060,520
We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19
