the ratio of strawberries to grapes in the fruit salad is 3:9. the ratios of strawberries to honey dew is 6:14. if there 36 grapes. how many strawberries?

12 strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent strawberry with S, grape with G and honeydew with H

Given

S : H = 6 : 14

Required

Solve for S when G = 36

To do this, we make use of the first ratio

Substitute 36 for G

Convert to fractions

Multiply both sides by 36

Hence, there are 12 strawberries

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

y=mx+b
