William is 5 times as old as umaima and is also 8 year older hen umaima. how old is william?

1 answer:

6 0

Let S represent William, and M represent Umaima.
S = 5M
S = M + 8
Since they are both values of S, they equal each other.
5M = M + 8
Subtract M from each side
4M = 8
Divide each side by 4
M = 4\2
Umaima is 2; therefore William is 10.

IV. Intercepts. Give the intercepts of the following linear equations. 1) 5x + 3y = 8 2) 10x + 6y - 12 = 4 3) 2x – 3y = 5 4) 3x

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

1) $\frac{8}{3}$

2) $\frac{8}{3}$

3) $\frac{-5}{3}$

4)2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 5x + 3y = 8

3y=8-5x

$y=\frac{-5}{8} x+\frac{8}{3}$

hence intercept is $\frac{8}{3}$

2) 10x + 6y - 12 = 4

10x + 6y = 16

6y=16-10x

$y=\frac{-10}{6} x+\frac{16}{6}$

hence intercept is $\frac{8}{3}$

3) 2x – 3y = 5

3y=2x-5

$y=\frac{2}{3} x+\frac{-5}{3}$

hence intercept is $\frac{-5}{3}$

4) 3x + 2y = 1

2y=-3x+4

$y=\frac{-3}{2} x+\frac{4}{2}$

hence intercept is 2

the animal shelter has space for 800 animals there were already 468 animals at the shelter after a storm a hundred ninety two mo

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

It is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 468 (amount of animals already there) and add how ever many more coming (192) then you'll get 680. If you add 100 more that will only be 780 animals.
