Answer:
a= 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 x 3/4- 1/6 = 1/3
Answer:
-0.5 and 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
removing absolute value will yield two equation: 2.5-y=3 and 2.5-y=-3
solve for y in both case.
That'd be 5/8 ths of 56 houses, or 35 houses, sold
Answer:
y = 16.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition x = 15 when y = 12, that is
12 = 15k ( divide both sides by 15 )
= k, so
k = 0.8 y = 0.8x ← equation of variation
When x = 21, then
y = 0.8 × 21 = 16.8
