There are 70 people attending a high school baseball game. The difference between the number of women and men at the game is 18.

Let x represent the number of women. Let y represent the number of men.
This system of equations represents this situation:

x+y=70

x−y=18

How many women and men are at the game?

Adding the systems of equations together, we get
2x=88
Dividing both sides by 2, we get x, or the number of women, to be 44.
Plugging that into either equation, we get
44-y=18. Adding y to both sides and subtracting 18, we get y, or the number of men, to be 26.

If $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ are replaced by four distinct digits from $1$ to $9$, inclusive, then what's the largest possible valu
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

  • for the value of difference to be largest, the minuend should be maximum(most possibly) and the subtrahend should be minimum

[in A-B=X, A is minuend and B is subtrahend ]

  • so, $a.b should be maximum. as there is a condition that 4 digits should be distinct, the product will be maximum if we choose 2 maximum valued numbers from the given numbers. so, one of them should be 9 and the other should be 8.

therefore, $a.b=9*8=72

  • as mentioned above, c.d$ should be minimum. this will be possible only when we choose  2 minimum valued numbers from the given numbers. so, one of them should be 1 and the other should be 2.

therefore, c.d$ = 1*2 = 2

  • hence, the difference = 72-2 = 70
  • thus,  the largest possible value of the difference $a.b - c.d$ = 70

Find the missing angle
inna [77]

THEOREM:

  • Angle sum property —: The sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

ANSWER:

Let the missing angle be x.

By angle sum property,

  • ∠x + 20° + 80° = 180°
  • ∠x + 100 = 180°
  • ∠x = 180° – 100°
  • ∠x = 80°

So, <u>Correct choice</u> - [C] 80°.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

x=8/3

y= -20/9

Step-by-step explanation:

4X + 3Y -4 =0

Linear egquations must in

x + y = 0

so 4X + 3Y =4

THEN

3X + 9Y = - 12

next use calculator to solve it or you can use traditional way
