Answer:
x = 35/36
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x-1/4) = 13/6 Distribute
3x-3/4=13/6 Add 3/4 on both sides
3x = 35/12 Divide by 3 on both sides
x = 35/36
Answer:
B) 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest = Principal x Rate x Time
108 = 900 x 3 x r
108 = 2700r
108/2700 = r
r = 0.04 or 4%
- Make an equation representing the number of vehicles needed.
We have six drivers so
x + y ≤ 6
That's not really an equation; it's an inequality. We want to use all our drivers so we can use the small vans, so
x + y = 6
- Make an equation representing the total number of seats in vehicles for the orchestra members.
s = 25x + 12y
That's how many seats total; it has to be at least 111 so again an inequality,
25x + 12y ≥ 111
We solve it like a system of equations.
x + y = 6
y = 6 - x
111 = 25x + 12y = 25x + 12(6-x)
111 = 25x + 72 - 12x
111 - 72 = 13 x
39 = 13 x
x = 3
Look at that, it worked out exactly. It didn't have to.
y = 6 - x = 3
Answer: 3 buses, 3 vans
Answer:
small number = -3
large number = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose two numbers are x and y
smaller number = x
larger number = y
Given that,
The difference of two numbers is 15
<h2>Equation 1</h2><h3>y - x = 15</h3>
Five times the smaller is the same as 9 less than twice the larger.
<h2>Equation 2</h2><h3>5x = 9 - 2y</h3>
Solve them
-x = 15 - y
x = y -15
put value of x in equation 2
5(y - 15) = 9 - 2y
-75 + 5y = 9 - 2y
-75 - 9 = -2y - 5y
-84 = -7y
y = 84/7
y = 12
x = 12 - 15
x = -3
Yes, 2.315 is greater than 2.3. Please mark me brainiest! :)
