Answer:
35 and 36
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we must interpret it line by line;
- We are dealing with consecutive integers; these are integers with a difference of 1 between them.
let the first number = x
second number = x + 1
x
- one - ninth of the second;
(x + 1)
for the "less" ;
x - (x + 1) = 3
Multiply through by 45
45(x) - (45) (x + 1) = 3 x 45
9x - 5(x + 1) = 135
9x - 5x -5 = 135
4x = 135 + 5
4x = 140
x = 35
Now, x+1 = 35 + 1 = 36
The consecutive integers are 35 and 36
Answer:
234 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Length of book, l=11 in
Width of book, w=8 in
Height of book, h=1in
Additional area required to overlap=20 square inches
We have to find how many square inches of paper to make cover of one book.
We know that surface area of cuboid
Using the formula
Surface area of book
Total paper used to make cover of one book
=Surface area of book +additional surface area
=
Hence, Anwar will use paper to make cover of one book=234 square inches
Answer:
$80 was on the gift card to begin with
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the initial money be x
Peter spent (1/2)*x
Peter added 10
<em>Before adding more money on the gift card Peter had x -(1/2)x left on the gift card which is (1/2)x</em>
<em>After loading more money Peter had (1/2)x + 10</em>
(1/2)x = 40 <em>(money spent by Peter)</em>
x/2 = 40
x = 80
Answer:
Different ways to solve a system of linear equations:
- isolate one variable in one equation and replace it in the other equation
- multiply/divide one equation by a constant and then add/subtract it to the other one, so that only one variable remains
- graph the equation and look at the intersection point
If you graph the system:
- there is only one solution if the lines intersects at only one point
- there is no solution if the lines don't intersect each other (they are parallel)
- there are infinitely many solutions if the lines overlap each other (they are the same equation multiplied by some constant)
Step-by-step explanation:
1st system
y = -x – 7
y = 4/3 x – 7
solution: x= 0, y = 7
2nd system
y = -3x – 5
y = x + 3
solution: x = -2, y = 1
3rd system
y = -2x + 5
y = 1/3 x – 2
solution: x = 3, y = -1
4th system
3x + 2y = 2
x + 2y = -2
solution: x = 2, y = -2
5th system
x + 3y = -9
2x – y = -4
solution: x = -3, y = -2
6th system
x – 2y = 2
-x + 4y = -8
solution: x = -4, y = -3
7th system
5x + y = -2
x + y = 2
solution: x = -1, y = -3
