If Jeff has 5 grasshoppers, then he would have 15 crickets because x(grasshoppers)+10=y(crickets), and y(crickets)+5=z(ladybugs), which would leave Jeff with 20 ladybugs.

Find any 3 (x,y) pairs that are solutions for the equation 2x-5y=10 . Show your work
Alla [95]

Answer:

(0,-2), (5,0) and (10,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 2x-5y=10.

Now we need to find 3 pairs of solutions in (x,y) form for the given equation.

As 2x-5y=10 is a linear equation so we are free to pick any number for x like x=0, 5, 10

Plug x=0 into 2x-5y=10, we get:

2(0)-5y=10

0-5y=10

-5y=10

y=\frac{10}{-5}

y=-2

Hence first solution is (0,-2)

We can repeat same process with x=5 and 10 to get the other solutions.

Hence final answer is (0,-2), (5,0) and (10,2).

Dana is planning to drive 400 miles from
GaryK [48]

Answer:

A. 8 gallons

B. Drive by car is $59.4 cheaper than travel by train

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, given data are as follows,

Total drive = 400 miles

Total drive per gallon = 50 miles

Fuel cost per gallon = $4.45

A. So, Total fuel required to drive 400 miles can be calculated as follows,

Total fuel required =  Total drive ÷ Total drive per gallon

By putting value, we get,

Total fuel required = 400 ÷ 50

= 8 gallons

B. Total cost if drive by car = 8 gallons × $4.45 = $35.6

Cost if travel by train = $95

Hence it is clearly shows that drive by car is much cheaper than travel by train.

Cost saved by travel by car = $95 - $35.6 = $59.4

So, drive by car is $59.4 cheaper than travel by train.
