Answer:

a. 12 minutes

b. 34 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are told that Ima has driven 5 minutes before Polly started driving

So if Ima has driven for x minutes , polly would have driven for y minutes but the difference between x and y is 5

So mathematically;

x = y + 5

a. 17 = y + 5

y = 17-5 = 12 minutes

b. x = 29 + 5

x = 34 minutes

<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

Divide both sides of the first equation by 7, then add the result to the second equation

=======================================================

Explanation:

We can multiply both sides of an equation by the same number and the equation will be equivalent to the original.

For example, if we had  x = 5, then we could get 2x = 10 after multiplying both sides by 2. The reason they are equivalent equations is because the same x value is the solution for both equations.

We can also divide both sides of an equation by the same number and the two equations would be equivalent. We can go from 2x = 10 back to x = 5 when we divide both sides by 2.

----------

If we divide both sides of 7x - 21y = 14 by 7, then we end up with x - 3y = 2. Simply divide each term (7x,  -21y, and 14) by 7.

Because 7x-21y=14 and x-3y=2 are equivalent, this means we can replace the "7x-21y=14" with "x-3y=2"

--------

The new system would be

x-3y = 2

2x+3y = 11

From here you add straight down. Doing so will have the y terms add to -3y+3y = 0y = 0. After this point the y terms are eliminated and you can solve for x just like with any other equation of one variable.

What is the second step when evaluating the expression 49 + 63 ÷ (3 + 2 × 2) – 7? 63 ÷ 3 63 ÷ 7 2 × 2 3 + 4
Zarrin [17]

ANSWER: Multiply and Divide from left to right

To do this question we must follow the rules of PEMDAS. The first step would be to evaluate the equation given to us in the parentheses. To solve that we would have to use PEMDAS once again which tells us to multiply 2 x 2 before we add 3, so we get 7. Now that there is no more Parentheses, our second step is to evaluate each Multiplication and Division expression from left to right. This would start by dividing 63 by 7 to get 9.

A Mexican restaurant sells quesadillas in two sizes: a "large" 10 inch-round quesadilla and a "small" 5 inch-
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Half of the 10-inch quesadilla is greater than the entire 5-inch quesadilla

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a circle is equal to

A=\pi r^2

where

r is the radius

step 1

Find the area of the 10 inch-round quesadilla

we have

D=10\ in

r=10/2=5\ in

substitute

A=\pi (5)^2

A=25\pi\ in^2

step 2

Find the area of the 5 inch-round quesadilla

we have

D=5\ in

r=5/2=2.5\ in

substitute

A=\pi (2.5)^2

A=6.25\pi\ in^2

step 3

Which is larger, half of the 10-inch quesadilla or the entire 5-inch quesadilla?

Compare

half of the 10-inch quesadilla is equal to ----> \frac{1}{2}(25\pi)=12.5\pi\ in^2

the entire 5-inch quesadilla ---->6.25\pi\ in^2

therefore

Half of the 10-inch quesadilla is greater than the entire 5-inch quesadilla

Round 5,268.9284 to the nearest thousand
svet-max [94.6K]
The answer would be 5 thousand because the decimal doesn't count and you have 268 and that's lower than 500
