So we have to put the value of 1:3 in a ratio
1 : 3
= 3:y
Ask yourself what do I have to multiply one by to get three ( the answer is three)
Because one side is multiplied by three, you have to multiply the right hand side by three to get y
3*3 is 9
Therefore, the y for 3 hours is 9
Then, we have to make another ratio
1:3
= 5:x
Ask yourself what do I have to multiply by one to get five (the answer is five)
So you multiply the other side by five as well
3*5=15
Therefore, the y for five hours is 15
X <0 means x would be negative.
For x/y, a negative divided by a positive would give a negative answer.
A negative multiplied by a positive would result in a negative.
The answer would be B. Negative
Let x is the amount of $11 per pound coffee
then the equation will be,
11x + 3(30) = 5 (x + 30)
11x + 90 = 5x + 150
11x - 5x = 150 - 90
6x = 60
x = 10
So, $10 is the amount of $11 per coffee that should be added
Answer:
m = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Total perimeter = 3m + 3m + m + m = 96
so, 8m = 96
then m = 12
