Remember you can' do anything to boht sides, but when times negative, flip sign
distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac
distribute the -4
-8+4x
now we have
2x<8-8+4x
2x<4x
minus 2x both sides
0<2x
therefor
0<x
answer is x>0
We define the variables:
p: cost of bushel of peaches
w: cost of watermelon
We wrote the system of equations:
12p + 5w = 150
15p + 8w = 198
We can represent the system in matrix form as
Ax = b
Where,
A = [12 5; 15 8]
b = [150; 198]
x = [p; w]
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
For polygon PQRST to be considered a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE, it means every segments of polygon ABCDE were increased proportionally by a scale factor.
The segments in polygon PQRST were not gotten using the same scale factor, hence, it is not a scaled copy of the original polygon, ABCDE.
Segment CD = 2 units, it corresponds to segment RS = 4 units. Scale factor = RS/CD = 4/2 = 2
Segment BC = 1 unit, it corresponds to segment QR = 1 unit. Scale factor = QR/BC = 1/1 = 1 units.
Varying scale factor shows polygon PQRST is not a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE.
Answer: 3:4
Step-by-step explanation:
75:100 = 75/100
Simplify:
75/100 = 3/4, otherwise written as 3:4
