Is this the way the question is laid out? is there an equal sign anywhere
Answer: Either A or B
Step-by-step explanation:
Both A and B are the same answers, but the main answer should be
c+d=17, 4c+2d =54
C represents the number of cows and D represents the number ducks. The two and fours in front of the variables represents the number of legs the repesctive animal has.
c+d would mean how many animals are in the barn. Feel free to clarify the two same answers
Answer:
<h2><u>
X= 1</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>y = 5 - 3x</em>
<em>5x - 4y = -3</em>
you substitute for y since you know what y equals.
so, it will then be
5x -4(5 -3x) = -3
you then multiply -4 by everything in the parenthesis
so then it will be
5x - 20 + 12x = -3
Then combine like terms
5x + 12x = 17x
then the new equation is
17x -20 = -3
the next step is to and 20 to both sides since it is negative you do the opposite.
17x - 20 = -3
<u> + 20 +20</u>
17x = 17 divide 17 by both sides sice 17 is being multiplied by x you do the opposite and divide and you get 1.
<h2><u>
so, X = 1</u></h2>
Given that the amount of time varies inversely with G.
It can be written as,
where K is the constant.
We need to determine the time it takes to put out the fire when 200 gallons of water are used.
<u>The value of constant:</u>
When 
, we get;
Thus, the value of constant is 96.
<u>Time taken:</u>
Substituting 
and 
in the formula , we get;
Thus, the time taken to put out the fire using 200 gallons of water is 48 minutes.
Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
