2x + y = 0
2x + 3 = 0
- 3 - 3
2x = -3
2 2
x = -1¹/₂
(x, y) = (-1¹/₂, 3)
, it is important to recognize that the point (x,y) in the first quadrant represents any
point on the semicircle. In Figure 2, the same semicircle is shown with the inscribed rectangle drawn for
three different values of x.
Convert to a decimal which would be 0.55 (11/20).
Then you want to multiply 0.55 by 100 (which is a whole number, all % is going to come from 100) to convert to a full % -> 0.55*100
Then you will simplify 0.55*100
You answer will be 55%.
Answer:
pen = $1.20, pencil = $0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = pen
let y = pencil
create system of equations:
3x + 6y = 6.60 [can be simplified to be x + 2y = 2.20]
5x + 8y = 10.00
substitution method:
x = 2.2 - 2y
5(2.2 - 2y) + 8y = 10
11 - 10y + 8y = 10
-2y = -1
y = 1/2
solve for 'x':
3x + 6(1/2) = 6.6
3x + 3 = 6.6
3x = 3.6
x = 1.2
