Assuming that the inequality you were going for was a ≤, set both polynomials less than or equal to 0.
x - 3 ≤ 0
x + 5 ≤ 0
For the first equation add 3 to both sides of the inequality. For the second, subtract 5 from both sides.
x ≤ 3
x ≤ - 5
These would be your solutions I guess, however, if you want to expand upon that, your actual answer is (- ∞, - 5] because if you were to plot these two inequalities on a number line, that is where the overlap would occur.
Set up your two equations:
<span>9x+7y=53 </span>
<span>3x+5y=25 </span>
<span>X=cost per pound of jelly bean </span>
<span>Y=cost per pound of trail mix </span>
<span>Multiply the second equation by (-3): </span>
<span>-9x-15y=-75 </span>
<span>+ 9x+7y=53 <---- copy first equation and add them </span>
<span>—————— </span>
<span>0x-8y=-22 </span>
<span>Then solve for y: </span>
<span>Y=2.76 this is your cost per pound of trail mix. </span>
<span>Then plug y back in to one of the original equations and solve for x: </span>
<span>3x+7(2.75)=25 </span>
<span>X=3.75 this is you cost per pound of jelly beans</span>
Answer:
x= 16
/20420505
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5(215)x=16
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
20420505x=16
Step 2: Divide both sides by 20420505.
20420505x
/20420505 = 16
/20420505
x= 16
/20420505
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
3 x 12 = 36
4 x 9 = 36
So if we see the first one (8,4) x=8 and y=4
And we see the 2nd one (4,y) x=4 and y=?
We notice that the value of x its been halved. So y varies with x so y value also has to be halved so y= 2
