Answer:

8246=x+180

x=8066 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial readings be x

The final reading is the sum of initial reading and distance covered hence

Final=Initial + distance covered

Substituting 8246 miles for the final miles and 180 miles for the distance traveled to Grandma's house

8246=x+180

Solving for x

x=8246-180=8066 miles

I need help ASAP PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

97,99,101,103

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = first odd integer

x+2 = 2nd odd integer

x+4 = 3rd odd integer

x+6 = 4th odd integer

Sum of 4 odd integers is 400

x+ (x+2) + (x+4)+(x+6) = 400

Combine like terms

4x +12 = 400

Subtract 12 from each side

4x+12-12 = 400-12

4x = 388

Divide by 4 on each side

4x/4 = 388/4

x=97

The first integer is 97

The 2nd is 97+2 =99

The third ix 97+4 = 101

The 4th is 97+6 = 103

Simplify, 99/121 whats the GCF?
Nadya [2.5K]

To find the GCF:

-- List the factors of the first number.
-- List the factors of the second number.
-- Make a short list of the factors that show up for BOTH numbers.
-- Find the biggest number on the short list.

Factors of the first number (99):  <u>1</u>, 3, 9, <u>11</u>, 33, 99 .

Factors of the second number (121):  <u>1</u>, <u>11</u>, 121 .

Short list (factors that show up for both numbers):  1, 11

Biggest number on the short list:  <em>11</em>

If (x, y) = (3, 4) is a solution of the simultaneous equations.
Vinvika [58]
The first thing you want to do is plug in x and y into both equations:

a(3) + b(4) = 4

b(3) + a(4) = 8

rearrange to line up a’s and b’s

3a + 4b = 4

4a + 3b = 8

now you want to choose a or b and multiply each equation by a number to make them have the same amount of a’s or b’s.

4(3a + 4b = 4) = 12a + 16b = 16

3(4a + 3b = 8) = 12a + 9b = 24


Now we subtract the bottom equation from the top and solve for b:

12a + 16b - (12a + 9b) = 16 - 24

7b = -8

b = -8/7


Now we plug back in for b to one of the original equations:

3a + 4(-8/7) = 4

3a + (-32/7) = 4

3a - (32/7) = 4

3a = 4 + (32/7)

3a = (28/7) + (32/7)

3a = 60/7

a = (60/7)/3 = 20/7.


Finally, plug a and b in together to double check using the second equation.

4a + 3b = 8

4(20/7) + 3(-8/7) = ?

(80/7) - (24/7) = ?

56/7 = 8.
