Let the amount saved by the brother that has less savings be x, then the savings of the other brother is x + 15.

Since their total savings is 55, then
x + x + 15 = 55
2x + 15 = 55
2x = 55 - 15 = 40
x = 40 / 2 = 20

Therefore, one person saved 20 and the other saved 20 + 15 = 35.

Answer:

<h2>9.2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is:

d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

-4 - 2 = -6  squared = 36

4 - -3 = 7   squared = 49

36 + 49 = 85

\sqrt{85} = about 9.2

I'm always happy to help :)

I can't figure out how to do this problem. Could somebody help me?
Verizon [17]

start by plugging in the value you already have, in this case, 5 for y.

-4x-3(5)=17

-4x-15=17

-4x=32

x=-8

however, since a is a+1, a would be 7 (making x 8)

also plz tell me if i read this wrong and it’s actually 1,5 rather than a+1 and 5 cause if i did i’m so sorry lol.

Answer:

Its to multiply the numerators by each other and the denominators by each other

Step-by-step explanation:

If adding and subtracting fractions is about finding the least common denominator

dividing fractions is to keep the first fraction,multiply and reverse the second fraction,so dividing is pretty similar to multiplying but just switching the divide sign with a multiplication sign and reversing the second fraction from numerator/denominator to denominator/numerator

and there is always a big difference if you multiply/divide or add/subtract
