Switch y=2x+7 to 2x-y=-7 then multiply that equation by 2 to cancel out the y's. that ends up as 4x-2y=-14 which then you get x=-24. then you substitute x into one of the original equations y= 2(-24)+7 which equals y=-41
One way to compare is to find the price per gallon.
$24 for 4 gallons = 24÷4 = $6 per gallon
8 pack of 1 qt bottle give you 2 gallons (4qts= 1 gallon) So you get 2 gallons for $16
$16 ÷ 2 = $8.00 per gallon. Sweet and Sour has the higher unit price.
Even if we compare the price per quart we will get the same answer as to who is selling it at the higher unit price.
4gal for $24 = 16 quarts for $24 ( 1 gallon = 4 qts)
$24 ÷ 16 = $1.50 each (1
)
vs.
8 quarts for $16 $16 ÷ 8 = $2.00 per qt. Sweet and sour still has the higher unit price
Answer:
16 ribbons
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the length of the chain as 10 and there is a ribbon tied to it every , we can take the total length of the chain and divide by the measure of :
When dividing with fractions, we use the rule of 'keep/change/flip' to keep the first fractions, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
