<span>Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the solution to the system?
</span>A. (2, −6.5)
in the number line, the end points are DG, and the point in between is O
DG = 88
DO = 5x + 12
OG = 2x
Set the equation. The two parts (DO & OG) are equal to the whole (DG)
2x + 5x + 12 = 88
Simplify. Combine like terms
(2x + 5x) + 12 = 88
7x + 12 = 88
Isolate the x. Remember to do the opposite of PEMDAS. Subtract 12 from both sides
7x + 12 (-12) = 88 (-12)
7x = 76
Isolate the x. Divide 7 from both sides:
7x/7 = 76/7
x = 76/7
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find DO. Plug in "76/7" for x:
DO = 5x + 12
DO = 5(76/7) + 12
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS. Multiply 76 with 5
DO = 380/7 + 12
Next, divide 380 with 7
DO = 54.29 (rounded)
Finally, add
DO = 54.29 + 12
DO = 66.29
66.29 is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
y=4/5x
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
plug in y and x into each equation and solve!
4=5m+b
8=10m+b
4=5m
m=4/5
b=0
y=4/5x+0
Answer:
200 students must agree to attend in order for the school to have the festival.
Step-by-step explanation:
200 is 40% of 500. We can also use fractions to figure this out.
For 100 to become 500 it must be multiplied by 5. And whatever we do to the denominator we have to do to the numerator. So we multiply 40 × 5 = <em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 200
Answer: 1/2
First you do 4/4 times 4/4. Which is equal to 1. Then, you multiply by 2/4 to get 1/2.
