This is an infinite loop display
First, we draw our line.
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
a e
Next, break up this line into segments using the information.
|----------------------|----------------------|--------------------|------------------|
a b c d e
The entire line is 29.
ab + bc + cd + de = ae
ab + bc + cd + de = 29
You also know that
bd = bc + cd
Due to midpoint theorem,
ab = bc
cd = de
Then,
2ab + 2cd = 29
The equations we will use are
bd = bc + cd eq1
2bc + 2cd = 29 eq2
Dividing both sides of the equation in eq2 yields
bc + cd = 14.5
bd = bc + cd
bd = 14.5
Answer:
"Dominic lived in Spain for 13 months and Columbia for 7 months."
Step-by-step explanation:
let months stayed in spain be "s" and months stayed in columbia be "c"
We can write 2 equations.
Since, lived in Spain and Columbia for a total of 20 months, we can write:
s + c = 20
Also, since 120 words per month in Spain and 150 words per month in Columbia for a total of 2610 new words, we can write:
120s + 150c=2610
Solving first for s:
s = 20 - c
Putting in 2nd and solving:
120(20 - c) + 150c = 2610
2400 - 120c + 150c = 2610
30c = 210
c = 7
Now,
s = 20 - c = 20 - 7 = 13
So
"Dominic lived in Spain for 13 months and Columbia for 7 months."
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation using slope intercept form.
y = mx + b
75 = 8x + 15
Solve.
75 = 8x + 15
-15 -15
60 = 8x
7.5
Round down as it is dealing with money and he would not have enough to purchase an 8th grocery.
7 is the final answer.
Hope this helps!
