X=y-2
2y=5x-17
Substituting for x into the second equation, we find
2y=5(y-2)-17
2y=5y-10-17
-3y=-27
y=9
So x=7
Thus, the two numbers are 7 and 9.

kykrilka [37]
N = number of hours.

$5 per hour, total = 5*n = $5n

Since $35 has been saved. 

The amount saved plus the amount got from baby sitting should be greater or equal to the $90 cost.

5n + 35 ≥ 90

5n ≥ 90 -35

5n ≥ 55

n ≥ 55/5

n ≥ 11

So Rodney should baby sit for at least 11 hours, that is 11 and above.

I need help with this Maths Homework Question.
Monica [59]

Answer:

1. 41/45.

2. x/(x^2+3x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

So first we fill the ven diagram.

There are 240 in band, so we fill that. 60 students are in both, we put that in the middle, and there are 110 people in choir.

now, since we want the probability that a student is chosen that is in band, and choir, and both. We add all this up

240 + 60 + 110 = 410.

The total possible outcome is 410, and the total outcome is 450, so the answer is

410/450 = 41/45

2.

First, to get the total outcomes, we have to add all the expressions together.

x(x-2) + x + 2x+8 = x^2 - 2 + x + 2x + 8 = x^2 - 2 + 3x + 8 = x^2 + 3x + 6.

Since that is the total outcome, we have to find the possible outcomes.

The problem wants BOTH from the 20th century and British, so it is x.

x/(x^2+3x+6). We cannot simplify any further, thus x/(x^2+3x+6) is our answer
