Answer:
y=40
Step-by-step explanation:
She will use 42 purple beads.
Explanation
We will use a proportion to solve this.
The ratio of blue to purple beads is 4:3, or 4/3.
We know she uses 56 blue beads and an unknown amount, x, of purple beads. This gives us 56/x.
Together, we have
4/3 = 56/x
Cross multiply:
4*x = 3*56
4x = 168
Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 168/4
x = 42
OK. SO first you need to know how many pints are in a gallon. ( one gallon = 8 quarts )
One day = one pint. So we want to find what 366 days equals. 1*366=366 pints in 366 days. We now have 366 pints. We need to convert that to gallons. One gallon equals 8 quarts, so we divide 366 by 8. 366/8= 45.75
So in one leap year a person drinks 45.75 gallons of milk
If that doesn't make sense, ask and i can re explain. Hope that helped! <span />
Answer: He added 4 to a negative 42 and said it was 46 but its supposed to simplify to -38. X=3/5
This is hard to write... I hope this makes sense to you...
3x-2y=-39
x+3y= 31
We want to use elimination therefor, we need to either get our x or our y to add together to get zero.
To do this, we will multiply -3 to (x=3y=31)
NEW EQUATION
3x-2y=-39 PLUS
-3x-9y= -93 Equals
Answer: -11y= -54
y= 4.9
Plug in to solve for x (put new y in)
3x-2(4.9)=-39
x= -9.73
