Answer:
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5
You can write this another way:
2a + 3(a-5) = 5 ( I added the second formula in the first one )
Now you gotta factor out:
2a + 3a - 15 = 5
Here im gonna do plus 15
2a + 3a = 20 ==> 5a = 20
Now if you divide by 5, you get: a = 4
Now you can fill in the second formula again
b = a - 5 (ill fill this in now)
b = 4 - 5 = -1
So, this makes:
a = 4 , b = -1
Answer:
The square cake is has a larger area by about 40.73 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of the top of each cake.
The square cake has an area of 81 sq inches, ( length x width = Area, the
length is 9)
The round cake has an area of 16π, which is about 50.27 square inches
(A = πr², here r is 4, radius is half the diameter)
81 - 16π = 81 - 50.27 = 40.73 square inches
Well, since a is Susan’s current age, we would add three to a to get her age in three years
So our expression would be:
a + 3
Answer: She can buy up to 2 bags of nuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality:
The product of the number of bags of nuts bought (n) and the price per bag (5.70); plus the price of one box of cookies (4.25) must be less or equal to Annie's money (18).
5.70n +4.25 ≤18
Solving for x:
5.70n ≤18 -4.25
5.70n ≤13.75
n ≤13.75/5.70
n ≤2.41
n ≤2 (rounded)
She can buy up to 2 bags of nuts
