By writing an equation you can easily solve this:

18+ X + 4X - 1 = 42
•we need the answer to 4X-1

1. put the parts that include the X parameter in one side and the integer numbers in one side :
X + 4X = 25
5X= 25
X= 5

2. 4X-1 —> 4x5-1 = 19

Solve the system of equations. (3x + 4y = 5) (2x - 3y = -8)
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

the solution is (-1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the system

(3x + 4y = 5)

(2x - 3y = -8)

using the method of elimination by addition and subtraction.  Notice that if we multiply all terms of the first equation by 3 and all terms of the second by 4, y as a variable will temporarily disappear:

  9x + 12y = 15

  8x - 12y  = -32

-----------------------

 17x       = - 17, so x = -1.  

Replacing x in the second equation by -1, we get:

2(-1) - 3y = -8, or

2 + 3y = 8,

or 3y = 6.  Thus, y = 2, and the solution is (-1, 2).

Taxi B
1mile £1.25+£2.00=£3.25

Taxi A
2miles £3.50+£3.50=£7.00
Taxi B
2miles £1.25+£4.00=£5.25

Taxi A
3miles £3.50+£5.25=£8.75
Taxi B
3miles £1.25+£6.00=£7.25

Taxi A
4miles £3.50+£7.00=£10.50
Taxi B
4miles £1.25+£8.00=£9.25

Taxi A
5miles £3.50+£8.75=£12.25
Taxi B
5miles £1.25+£10.00=£11.25

Taxi A
6miles £3.50+£10.50=£14.00
Taxi B
6miles £1.25+£12.00=£13.25

Taxi A
7miles £3.50+£12.25=£15.75
Taxi B
7miles £1.25+£14.00=£15.25

Taxi A
8miles £3.50+£14.00=£17.50
Taxi B
8miles £1.25+£16.00=£17.25

Taxi A
9miles £3.50+£15.75=£19.25 (the same)
Taxi B
9miles £1.25+£18.00=£19.25 (the same)

^^^
They would have to drive 9 miles for the taxi to cost the same.

Hope this helped, this is the longest way to work it out but also the simplest.

How many 1/4 cup servings of raisins are in 7/8 cups of raisins?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 7/8 by 1/4.  (You divide the "supply" of raisins into 1/4 cup "parts".)

\frac{7}{8} \div \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{28}{8} =\frac{7}{1} =7

Multiply 7/8 by the reciprocal of 1/4 ("flip" the 1/4).

The result is 28/8, which can be simplified ("reduced") to 7.
