Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On the return trip from the beach, you pedal hard for the first ten minutes and cover 4 miles.

Speed = distance covered/time taken

This means that your speed for the first 4 miles would be

4/10 = 0.4 miles per minute

Tired, you slow down and cover the last 6 miles in 36 minutes. This means that your speed for the last 6 miles would be

6/36 = 0.17 miles per minute

Therefore, your average speed for the return trip would be

(0.4 + 0.17)/2

= 0.285 miles per minute

7/x = 5/y
Can be changed to:

A total of 697 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. There were 53 fewer stu
Burka [1]
Let x = number of adult tickets sold
Let x-53 = number of student tickets sold

x + x -53 = 697
2x - 53 = 697. 

Add 53 to both sides to get:

2x = 750

Divide both sides by 2 to get:

x = 375

375 adult tickets were sold.

Find a parametrization of the line in which the planes x + y + z = -6 and y + z = -8 intersect.
rewona [7]

Answer:

L(x,y) = (2,-8,0) + (0,-1,1)*t

Step-by-step explanation:

for the planes

x + y + z = -6  and y + z = -8

the intersection can be found subtracting the equation of the planes

x + y + z - ( y + z ) = -6 - (-8)

x= 2

therefore

x=2

z=z

y= -8 - z

using z as parameter t and the point (2,-8,0) as reference point , then

x= 2

y= -8 - t

z= 0 + t

another way of writing it is

L(x,y) = (2,-8,0) + (0,-1,1)*t

2/3a = -24<br><br> Please solve the equation and show how you got the answer! (:
devlian [24]
You have to isolate the (a) so you multiply the 2/3 by 3/2 and you have to do that to the right side. So -24 times 3/2 equals to -36. Therefore, a=-36.
