Given:
x = candy selling at 6 per pound
y = candy selling at 9 per pound
x + y = 15
6x + 9y = 15(7)
6x + 9y = 105
x = 15 - y
6(15-y) + 9y = 105
90 - 6y + 9y = 105
3y = 105 - 90
3y = 15
3y/3 = 15/3
y = 5
There should be 5 pounds of more expensive candy.
x = 15 - y
x = 15 - 5
x =10
There should be 10 pounds of less expensive candy.
Answer:
The percentages are 267% and 400% respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answers of these, you need to divide the second number by the first. This will give you the percentage.
2/3 ÷ 1/4 = 8/3 = 2.67 = 267%
You can do the same for the second one.
2/3 ÷ 1/6 = 12/3 = 4 = 400%
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
you find area of a triangle with equation:

base: 6
height: 8


area equals: 24
for the second photo
vertex would be at (1,-8)
this is because each vertex is in a different quadrant so you would need a negative y axis to form the rectangle
No because it would be 7/6 which is not proportional.
