X+0.5 could be an inequality to represent the possible weight of the second fish, unless you can tell me the weight of the first fish?
The answer is: 8 red marbles!
This is because the equation can be written out like this
Blue to red - 3:2
Now it is, blue to red - 12:x
We have to think, what is the difference from the first equation to the second. We know the number 3 times 4 = 12, so we would do the same for the red, 2 times 4=8
If this helped, give me brainliest :)
Answer:
(x+a) (x+b)=x(x+b)+a(x+b)=x²+bx+ax+ab=x²+x(a+b)+ab
Answer:
120 books
Step-by-step explanation:
57 + 3 = 60
60 x 2 = 120
Hi there!
So, our two equations are:
2x + 3y = 20 and
-2x + y = 4
We can see that the x's will cancel out because they're the same number, opposite signs. Then we're left with 4y = 24.
Divide 24 by 4, which is 6.
y = 6, then we plug that in to the first equation for y:
2x + 3(6) = 20
2x + 18 = 20
2x = 2
x = 1
So, she made her first mistake when adding the equations, adding 20 and 4, she somehow got 16.
The solution to the system is (1,6).
I hope I helped!
