If you would like to know how many pounds of pasta the restaurant will need, you can calculate this using the following steps:
3 pounds of pasta ... 14 people
x pounds of pasta = ? ... 56 people
3 * 56 = 14 * x /14
x = 3 * 56 / 14
x = 12 pounds of pasta
The correct result would be 12 pounds of pasta.
The correct answer is 400 yrds
Hope this helps
I'm not sure if this is a multiple choice question, so I will just solve the equation.
-5 (4x - 7) + 8 = 3x
-5 (4x + (-7)) + 8 = 3x
1. Distributive Property of Multiplication
(-5)(4x) + (-5)(-7) + 8 = 3x
2. Simplify
-20x + (-35) + 8 = 3x
3. Simplify again
-20x - 27 = 3x
4. Add 27 to both sides and then subtract 3x from both sides to get all the x's by themselves on the same side
-20x - 27 + 27 = 3x + 27
-20x - 3x = 3x + 27 - 3x
5. Simplify
-23x = 27
6. Divide
-23x / -23 = 27 / -23
7. Simplify
Answer:
<h2>
x = - 27/23 ≈ -1.17</h2>
Hope this helps!
Use substitution
Given both y values, you know that they have to be equal
3x + 3 = x - 1
2x + 3 = -1
2x = -4, divide by 2
x = -2
Now plug x value into any of the equation to find y value
y = 3(-2) + 3
y = -6 + 3, y = -3
Solution: x = -2, y = -3
