A northern elephant seal made 60 dives in 12 hours at this rate how many dives did the sea turtle make in seven hours

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is 56! I used a double number line! You have to get the unit rate first! Unit means 1, you have to get from 12 to 1! I did 12 divided by 12, and got 1! Whatever I do to the bottom I do to the top. So I divided 60 by 12 and got 5. Now we have to get to seven, so I multiplied 1 x 7 and got 7. Than I multiplied 5 times 7 and got 56! I hope <em>I helped! :D</em>

2x+2y=10 solve for x

irakobra [83]

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side you do to the other.

Subtract 2y from both sides

2x + 2y (-2y) = 10 (-2y)

2x = 10 - 2y

Isolate the x, divide 2 from both sides and from all terms.

(2x)/2 = (10 - 2y)/2

x = 5 - y

Place the variable in the front
