1) The number is 12.

2) There are 7 passengers in a row.

3) Carol, Xavier and Keela drank 580, 1160 and 1260 mL of water, respectively.

<h3>How to resolve word problems involving linear equations</h3>

In this question we find word problems involving linear equations, in each case we need to understand the statement, derive mathematical equations and looking for corresponding solutions by algebraic means. Now we proceed to solve for each case:

Case 1

A variable is found herein and we need to resolve on this linear equation: (x - A number)

(x + 8) / 4 = 1 + (1 / 3) · x

(1 / 4) · x + 2 = 1 + (1 / 3) · x

1 = (1 / 12) · x

x = 12

The number is 12.

Case 2

A variable is found herein and we need to resolve on this linear equation: (x - Number of passengers per row)

30 · x + 12 = 222

30 · x = 210

x = 7

There are 7 passengers in a row.

Case 3

Three variables are found herein and we need to resolve on these linear equations: (x - Water consumed by Carol, y - Water consumed by Xavier, z - Water consumed by Keela)

z = 2 · x                        (1)

y = z + 100                   (2)

x + y + z = 3000           (3)

Finally, we find the solution of this system:

x + (z + 100) + z = 3000

x + 2 · z = 2900

x + 4 · x = 2900

5 · x = 2900

x = 580 mL

z = 1160 mL

y = 1260 mL

Carol, Xavier and Keela drank 580, 1160 and 1260 mL of water, respectively.

Answer:

15, 8, 25 The teacher payed 0.40 per book.

Step-by-step explanation:

4/10 = 2/5 Simplify the 4/10 to find the unit rate.

15: 2/5 = 6/x Set up your proportion.

    2x   =30 Cross multiply

    /2      /2 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

     x     =15

8: 2/5 = x/20 Set up proportion

   40  =5x Cross multiply

    /5     /5 Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x

     8  =x

25: 2/5 = 10/x Set up proportion

      2x  =50 Cross multiply

       /2     /2 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

        x   =25

Graph: y=mx+b To graph, you will need to use y=mx+b format

           y= 2/5 x+2 2/5 is your unit rate. Your rate changes every 2 books bought. To graph, start at (0,2) and go up 2 and to the right 5, plot. Continue moving up 2 and to the right 5 to graph.

The teacher payed 0.40 per book because 2/5 simplifies to 0.40.

Explain how the words term and coefficient are used in talking about the algebraic expression.
cupoosta [38]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The <u>algebraic expressions</u> are composed of several elements: Terms, Coefficients, Signs, Variables and Exponents. In this case we will focus on the first two.

<u>The terms</u> are composed of sign, coefficient, variable and exponent. The terms are separated from each other by the plus sign (+) or the minus sign (-).

For example, in the following expression:

2x-3x

We have two terms separated by the negative sign (-):

2x is the first term

-3x is the second term

Now, <u>the coefficients</u> are the numbers that multiply the variable. <u>Note that if this coefficient is one (1) it is omitted .</u>

For example in the following expression, the variable is x:

2x-3x+x

2 is the coefficient of x in the first term

-3 is the coefficient of x in the second term

1 is the coefficient of x in the third term, <u>but is omitted </u>


In order to understand this in a better way, see the figure attached, where the algebraic expression is composed by one term.
