You work it backwards.

-- If there were 4 children and each child got 4 pieces,
then the children got (4 x 4) = 16 pieces altogether.

-- That's what was left after he took 2 pieces for himself. 
So he started with (16 + 2) = <em>18 pieces</em>.

Which graph represents the solution set for the system s + l &lt; 30 and 8s + 12l ≤ 160?
garri49 [273]
Determine which of the four possible answer graphs features the lines

<span> s + l < 30 and

and 

8s + 12l ≤ 160     This one could be reduced to s+1.5l</span>≤20

Note that the first equation has s-intercept 30 and l intercept 30.
Also, that the send equation has s-intercept 20 and l intercept 13 1/3.

Knowing these intercepts will help you to recognize the properly graphed lines.

So, again, determine from this info which of the four possible answer graphs correctly illustrates the lines mentioned immediately above.

HELP PLEASE ILL GIVE BRAINLISTTTT!!!
Ber [7]

Answer:

Ok I’ll give a simple equation that your teacher probably won’t accept and one that your teacher will accept

Teacher accept: x-45=122

Not accept but way easier: 122+45=x

ALSO The answer to x: 167

Step-by-step explanation:

Heres the loop hole, they asked for 2 sentences but never declared the length of each sentence.

Explanation:

So we know that grace lost 45 pounds and at the end she weighs 122.

We don’t now what the beginning weight so we can make an equation like x-45=122 where x represents her before weight and the subtract 45 is when she lost that much and the final results of 122, if solved You’ll get her begginisng weight, 167.
