<h3>                                       \Rsh Hey! \Lsh</h3>

\Rsh<em>Let's solve this! We </em><em>can </em><em>do this! </em>\Lsh

>>> First, let's multiply -5 by b and 1. Then we obtain

\pmb{-5b-5=8}.

>>> Now we add 5 to both sides.

\pmb{-5b=13}

>>> And then, divide both sides by -5.

\pmb{b=-\dfrac{13}{5}}

>>> That is the value of b.

Draw the region that satisfies all three of the inequalities; <br>x &lt; 3, y &gt; 2, y &lt; 2x+3​
FrozenT [24]

Check the picture below.

the line you drew for y = 2x +3 is correct, now recall that the line for x = 3 is just a vertical line, in red, and that y = 2 is just a horizontal line, in green.

now all lines are solid because all are using ⩽ or ⩾, meaning the borderline is included, and you can do a "true" "false" region check if you wish, but less than 3 is to the left of the red one, greater than 2 is above the green one and less than 2x + 3 is just to its left.

Joe the trainer has two solo workout plans that he offers his clients: Plan A and Plan
sasho [114]
Let workout Plan A last a hours, and Plan B last b hours.

we are assuming personal training for each client.

i)
"On Monday there were 2 clients who did Plan A and 3 who did Plan"

the total time spent is : 2*a + 3*b =2a+3b

ii)
"On Tuesday there were 4 clients who did Plan A and 8 who did Plan B"

the total time spent was 4*a+8*b=4a+8b

iii) "Joe trained his Monday clients for a total of 7 hours"

so 2a+3b = 7

iv)

"Joe trained his Tuesday clients for a total of 17 hours"

so 4a+8b=17

v) thus we have the following system of equations:

2a+3b = 7
4a+8b=17

multiply the first equation by -2, and then add both equations, to eliminate a:

-4a-6b=-14
4a+8b=17
-------------------
2b=3, so b=3/2

2a+3b = 7
2a+3(3/2)=7
2a+9/2=7
multiply by 2:
4a+9=14
4a=5
a=5/4

Answer :

Plan A lasts 5/4=1.25 h
Plan B lasts 3/2=1.5 h

A small plane flew 808 miles in 4 hours with the wind. Then on the return trip flying against the wind it travels only 488 miles
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let wind velocity=x

speed of plane=y

(x+y)*4=808

x+y=808/4=202   ...(1)

(y-x)*4=488

y-x=122 ...(2)

add (1) and (2)

2y=202+122=324

y=324/2=162

from (1)

x+162=202

x=202-162=40

wind velocity=40 m/hr

speed of plane=162 m/hr
