1. B forms a proportion, this is what I did, i simply 10/18 to 5/9 and i try to see if 5/9 is equivalent to 25/45 and it is. 5/9*5/5= 25/45
2. You multiply 27*4=108 then 108/12=9 so a=12
3. you multiply 16*21=336 then 336/12=28 so b=28
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = a + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
x = The number that is 40% more than five more than a number a.
x = 40% more than 5 (plus a)
5 * 0.6 = 3
5+3 = 8
x = a + 8
7x+1y = 17.00 can be simplified to y = -7x +17
<span>-7x +17 can then be substituted for y in 3x+ 4y =17.50
</span>3x+4(y) = 17.50
3x+ 4(-7x +17) = 17.50
From here you can solve for X
<span>3x + 4(-7x +17) = 17.50
</span>3x -28x + 68 = 17.50
-25x + 68 = 17.50
-68 -68
-25x = -50.50
÷-25 ÷-25
X = 2.02
You can then replace x with 2.02 in the original 7x + 1y = 17.00 to solve for y.
7(x) + 1y = 17.00
7(2.02) + y = 17.00
14.14 + y = 17.00
-14.14 -14.14
y = 2.86
Then substitute 2.02 for x and 2.86 for y in the original 3x+ 4y = 17.50 to check.
3(x) + 4(y) = 17.50
3(2.02) + 4(2.86) = 17.50
6.06 + 11.44 = 17.50
17.50 = 17.50
So
X = 2.02
and
Y = 2.86
or the solution set is (2.02, 2.86)

first we substitute in the numbers
2(-3)+3(1)-2
-6+3-2
-3-2
-5
Then again
2(5)+3(4)-(-2)
