This is solved by setting up two equations and then using one to answer the other.
The first step (use what is given to set up the two separate equations)
We are looking for two numbers, let us call them X and Y.
We are told that X + Y = 59
We are also told that (9 more than) 9+ (4times the smaller number) 4Y is the bigger number X
Then we combine that into 9+4Y=X
so we now have two separate equations and we can use one to solve the other. Everywhere we have X in the first equation, we will fill in with the second equation
(9+4Y) +Y = 59 [then combine like terms]
9+5Y=59 [subtract 9 from both sides]
5Y=50 [divide both sides by 5 to isolate the Y]
Y=10 [now plug this into either equation to solve for X]
9+4(10)=X
9+40=X
<u><em>49=X and 10=Y</em></u>
Answer:
C. Leo scored points in 3/10 of his attempts
Step-by-step explanation:
30% is 30/100
Which can simplify to
3/10
A graphing calculator can do a linear regression on these points very easily. The y-intercept is 107.
_____
If you want to do this by hand, you can use the 2-point form of the equation for a line, then evaluate for x=0.
.. y = (100 -102)/(35 -25)*(x -25) +102
.. y =-2/10*(0 -25) +102
.. y = 107
Answer: The expression simplified is this 2.25x-10.4
Given the ratio, you know that:
length = 6x
width = 2x
height = 7x
Because the sum of the length and the width is 24 cm, you can write the equation:
6x + 2x = 24
Solve:
8x = 24
x = 3
Plug the 3 back into the expressions written earlier for length, width, and height.
length = 18 cm
width = 6 cm
height = 21 cm
Use the formula SA = 2B + Ph to solve for the surface area.
Surface Area = 2(area of the base) + (perimeter of the base)(height)
I'm going to plug in l, w, and h as variables for length, width, and height to show the exact way to solve for the B and P.
SA = 2lw + 2(l + w)h
SA = 2(18)(6) + 2(18 + 6)(21)
SA = 216 + 2(24)(21)
SA = 216 + 1008
SA = 1224
The surface area is 1,224 cm^2.
