Okay so you make your own kind of number, add the two number together. then graph the number on the chart verifying where its at . go from the origin and fine out where your number stands. then make sure your equations can prove that what number you picked and were you put them made the answer true
hope this helped!
The answer is 8 and 4 1/2.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Question 1: 71 and 72
Question 2: Child 1: 60 lbs, Child 2: 15 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1:
Consecutive numbers are 2 numbers right next to each other.
You know the numbers will have to be double digits number.
71 and 72 are consecutive numbers. The sum of them is 143.
71+72=143
Question 2:
For this problem, we can use system of equations to find the mass of the 2 children. Let's say x is the first child and y is the second child.
Equation 1
x+y=75
This equation comes from the combined mass of the 2 children.
Equation 2
x=4y
This equation comes from the first child being 4 times the mass of the second child.
Since we know the value of x, we can use substitution to find y.
4y+y=75
5y=75
y=15
Now that we know the second child is 15 lbs, we can plug this into any of the 2 equations to find the mass of the first child.
x=4(15)
x=60
The y-intercept is -10 The X- Intercept is -5 so it would be -10,-5
