Yvette wants to earn a profit of $360, then. That means she has to make a total of $480. 480 divided by 18 is 26 and 2/3. That basically rounds up to $26.67.
480 = 18x
360 = 18x - 120
120(3) = 18x - 120
(I'm not that good at this, so don't take my word for it)
An architect plans to make a drawing of the room of a house. The segment LM represents the ceiling of the room. He wants to construct a line passing through Q and perpendicular to side LM to represent a wall of the room. He uses a straightedge and compass to complete some steps of the construction, as shown below:
Answer: 2nd most popular country = 15895 students
most popular country = 24390 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students: 40,285
2nd most popular country = x students
most popular country = x + 8,495 students
x + x + 8495 = 40285
2x + 8495 = 40285
2x = 40285 - 8495
2x = 31790
x = 15895
2nd most popular country = x = 15895 students
most popular country = x + 8,495 = 15895 + 8,495 = 24390 students
Y = 3x + 3 this is equation 1
y = x -1 this is equation 2
since equation 1 and 2 already defined y in terms of x, we're just gonna substitute y into the other equation. as 2 is shorter I'm going with that today
x - 1 = 3x +3
-1 - 3 = 3x - x
-4 = 2x
x = -2
now we've got x just sub it in equation 2
y = -2 -1
y = -3
so the answer is (-2,-3)
