Answer: The trip was 440 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

A girl scout leader rented a bus for a trip to the museum.

Let x represent the number of miles

traveled over 350 miles.

Let y represent the total cost of travelling x miles

The bus company charged $275 plus $.35 for each mile traveled over 350 miles. This means that for x miles, the cost will be

y = 275 + 0.35x

If the bus trip cost $429, it means that y = 429

To determine the number of miles,we will substitute y = 429 into the equation. It becomes

429 = 275 + 0.35x

0.35x = 429 - 275 = 154

x = 154/0.35 = 440

x = 440 miles

Solve each equation for the missing variable. If your answer is not an integer, write it as an improper fraction.
FromTheMoon [43]

First example:

Subtract the 8n on both sides to get the variable on one side of the equation. Do the same for the regular numbers. Then divide by -3.

5n-14=8n+4\\ \\ 5n-8n=4+14 \\ \\ -3n=18\\ \\ n=-6

This should be your final answer.

Second Example:

Do the same thing as explained in Example 1. Here's some work to help guide you.

-15 - 5a + 4 = -2 + 30a + 26\\ \\ -5a-30a=-2+26+15\\ \\ -35a=39\\ \\ a = \frac{39}{-35}

That should be your final answer here.

Third Example:

3 - 9x = -8x + 25\\ \\ -9x+8x=25-3\\ \\ -x=22\\ \\ x=-22

Hope this helps and its understandable! Let me know if you still don't understand.

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems there is two ways to solve this, remember that this is just one of them.

The triangle to the left is an isosceles triangle by definition. It is given that two of its sides are equal.

The angles opposite the equal sides in an isosceles triangle are congruent. It is given that one of these angles is 70 degrees, so the other one must be 70 degrees as well.

This angle is opposite to Angle Y. Vertical angles are congruent, so Angle Y must be 70 degrees.

D is the answer.

THE DIFFERENCE OF TWO NUMBERS IS 4 AND THEIR SUM IS -7. WHAT IS THEIR PRODUCT. Who ever solved this correct will mark brainlist.
babunello [35]

Answer:

33/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x, and the second number be y.

x - y = 4

x + y = -7

Solve for x in the first equation.

x - y = 4

x = 4 + y

Put x as (4 + y) in the second equation and solve for y.

4 + y + y = -7

4 + 2y = -7

2y = -7 - 4

2y = -11

y = -11/2

Put y as -11/2 in the first equation and solve for x.

x - y = 4

x - (-11/2) = 4

x + 11/2 = 4

x = 4 - 11/2

x = -3/2

Their product is:

-11/2 × -3/2

33/4
