Bigger number is 3625 and smaller number is 3125
-5-(15y-1) = 2(7y-16) - y // question
-5-15y+1 = 14y-32-y // distribute
-15y - 4 = 13y - 32 // subtract
-28y = -28 // divide
y = 1
I believe that the answer is 13
Answer:
BC = 6.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from A to B, then from B to C, is the same distance as from A to C.
Thus,
AB + BC = AC
AB = 8x + 8
BC = 4x + 2
AC = 22
AB + BC = AC
(8x + 8) + (4x + 2) = 22
Expanding the parenthesis:
8x + 8 + 4x + 2 = 22
8x + 4x + 8 + 2 = 22
12x + 12 = 22
Subtracting 12 from both sides:
12x = 10
Dividing both sides by 12:
x = 10/12 = 1.2
x = 1.2
We're looking for BC. As we know,
BC = 4x + 2
Let's now put in x = 1.2 into this equation:
BC = 4x + 2
BC = 4 * 1.2 + 2
Since 4 * 1.2 is 4.8:
BC = 4.8 + 2
BC = 6.8
Answer: BC = 6.8
Hello!
I would say the second option, because it looks like the most reasonable one. The third and fourth options decrease, but we can see by the chart that in fact, the weight increases. Also, it wouldn't be the first option, because its showing that the wight is always constant and rate doesn't change. However, we can see that this is wrong and the rate actually does change. Therefore, the second option looks like the most reasonable for this chart.
Hope this helps!
