Answer

25+34b \frac{2}{5}+\frac{3}{4}b

Exercise #4

+6.1x+7.4y+=4.7x0.4y △+6.1x+7.4y+☐=4.7x-0.4y

What values are possible for ☐ and △ so that the equation can be satisfied?

a. =7y \triangle=-7y
=1.4x ☐=-1.4x

b. =7.8y △=-7.8y

=1.4x ☐=-1.4x

c. =1.4x △=-1.4x

=7.8y ☐=-7.8y

d. =3.4x △=-3.4x

=7.8y+2x ☐=-7.8y+2x

Video Solution

Answer

b, c, d
