Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the slope
We have 2 points
(0,0) and (1,6)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (6-0)/(1-0)
= 6/1
= 6
y = 6x
The constant of proportionality is 6
So here we just are gonna distribute and simplify.
Let
x---------> the length of the first piece
y---------> the length of the second piece
z---------> the length of the third piece
we know that
x+y+z=72 -------> equation 1
y=x+6 -----> solve for x
x=y-6 -------> equation 2
z=6+y -------> equation 3
substitute equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1
[y-6]+y+[6+y]=72
3y=72
y=(72/3)=24 in
<u>Find the value of x</u>
x=y-6 -------> equation 2
x=24-6=18 in
<u>Find the value of z</u>
z=6+y -------> equation 3
z=6+24=30 in
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the length of the first piece is 18 in
the length of the second piece 24 in
the length of the third piece is 30 in
Answer:
- one orange costs $0.35 and one grapefruit costs $0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>let grapefruits be g , let oranges be o</em>
so first equation:
→2g + 3o = $1.95
→g = ($1.95 - 3o)/2
so second equation:
→ 3g + 2o = $2.05
→ g = ($2.05 - 2o)/3
Solving simultaneously:
→ ($2.05 - 2o)/3 = ($1.95 - 3o)/2
→ 2($2.05 - 2o) = 3($1.95 - 3o)
→ 4.1 - 4o = 5.85 - 9o
→ - 4o + 9o = 5.85 - 4.1
→ 5o = 1.75
→ o = $0.35
Therefore one orange costs $0.35
Then one grapefruit costs g → ($1.95 - 3o)/2
→ g = ($1.95 - 3(0.35))/2
→ g = 0.45
Therefore one grapefruit costs $0.45
