[ An eagle spied 1428 antelope and wildebeests grazing on the savannah. If they were in the ratio of 9 to 5, how many antelope were there? ] Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ---
x/y = 9/5
---
x = (9/5)y
x + y = 1428
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x - (9/5)y = 0
x + y = 1428
---
x - 1.8y = 0
x + y = 1428
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
