Answer:

2x+2y=310

x-y=55

multiply seond equation by 2 and adding to first equation

2x-2y=110

add

2x-2y=110

2x+2y=310 +

4x+0y=420

4x=420

divide 4

x=105

sub

x-y=55

105-y=55

minuse 105

-y=-50

mult -1

y=50

the numbers are 105 and 50

Hi! I'm having trouble with my algebra homework. The second question (b) confused me, I don't understand what they are asking or

Yakvenalex [24]

A

Don't forget that you can also pull out an x besides the 10. The expression should look like this.

A(x) = 10x(x - 5)

The GCF is 10x

B

The area of the Bedroom = 10x ( x - 5)

If the length = 5x then the width is

A/L = 10x (x - 5)/(5x)= 2*(x - 5)

C

Now they are changing the Length to the GCF. We determined in A that the GCF = 10x

This time A/L = 10x(x - 5)/10x = (x - 5)

So the width = x - 5

Jeffrey is a kickboxing instructor who will be teaching classes at a local gym. To get certified

tatyana61 [14]

If Jeffrey takes 50 classes in his first month as an instructor, he will earn back the amount he spent on certification.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount spent on certification = $200

Base salary = $50

Payment per class = $3

Let, x be the number of classes.

J(x) = 50+3x

He needs to earn $200 dollars in first month, therefore,

50+3x=200

$3x=200-50\\3x=150$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{150}{3}\\x=50$

If Jeffrey takes 50 classes in his first month as an instructor, he will earn back the amount he spent on certification.
