Answer:
18 Skittles
6 M&Ms
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation:
Variable x = number of skittles
Variable y = number of M&Ms
1.50x + 2y = 39
x + y = 24
In the second equation, isolate a variable:
x = 24 - y
Substitute the value of x for 24 - y in the first equation:
1.50(24 - y) + 2y = 39
Use distributive property
36 - 1.5y + 2y = 39
Combine like terms
36 + 0.5y = 39
Isolate variable y:
0.5y = 3
y = 6
Substitute the value of y for 6 in the second equation:
x + 6 = 24
Isolate variable x:
x = 18
Plug these values into any equation of your choice to see if these values are correct (I'll do both equations just to prove it):
1.50(18) + 2(6) = 39
27 + 12 = 39
39 = 39
Correct
x + y = 24
18 + 6 = 24
24 = 24
Correct
The direct variation equation is:
d=kt
where d is the distance that the giraffe travels
k is the constant of variation
and t is time
Now we are told that the giraffe can travel 800 ft in 20 seconds, so we can solve for the constant of variation (k)
800=k(20) divide both sides by 20
k=40-------------and the units are ft per sec
So now we can write
d=40t
ck
d=40t
800ft=40*20 ft
800 ft= 800 ft
Hope this helps!
Answer:
4times1/4(y-(-25/4))=(x-(-3/2)) small 2
4p(y-k)=(x-h)small 2
something like that I belive
or just y>xsmall2+3x-4
