Answer:y = k x + 1
(1,3)
3 = k(1) + 1
2 = 1k
k = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
X=skirt
y=sweater
z=shoes
x+y+z=165
y=8/7x
z=x+11
plug it in
x+(8/7x)+(x+11)=165
2x+8/7x=154
22/7x=154
x=49
y=56
z=60
a skirt cost $49, a sweater cost $56, and a pair of shoes cost $60
Answer:
The original piece of wood is 108 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given ratio, the shortest is of the ratio 5 and the longest is of the ratio 7
Let the original piece of wood be x
so the sum of the ratios will be;
5 + 6 + 6 + 7 = 24
the shortest length would be 5/24 * x
= 5x/24
the longest will be 7/24 * x = 7x/24
From the question;
7x/24 -5x/24 = 9
(7x-5x) = 24(9)
2x = 24(9)
x = (24 * 9)/2
x = 108 cm
