x = number of packages he bought

y = number of popsicles in each package

Here are the two equations:

xy = 54

x = 3 + y

Using the substitution method, you can solve them to find x and y.

(3 + y)y = 54,

3y + y^2 = 54

y^2 + 3y - 54 = 0

Solve the quadriatic equation:

(y +9)(y - 6) = 0

y = -9, 6.

Plug y into: xy = 54

x(-9) = 54, x = -6.

x(6) = 54, x = 9.

So he bought 9 packages of popsicles, bc you can't bye -6 packages.

Elenna [48]


cosine ( CAH) = Adjacent/ hypothenus

cos9 = x/ 2

let x represent the horizontal distance

2 cos 9  = x

x = 2 (0.98768834)

x = 1.975

x = 1.97

therefore the horizontal dstance jade covers is 1.97km

2 (x + 1) + 6 = 20 - 3x
uysha [10]

Answer:

x=2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+1)+6=20-3x

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

2(x+1)+6=20-3x

Reorder the terms in parentheses

+(+2x+2)+6=20-3x

Remove unnecessary parentheses

+2x+2+6=+20-3x

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+2x+3x=+20-2-6

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+5x=+12

We divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get x.  

x=2.4

Find the area of these shape
erastovalidia [21]
Draw a line on the hole which forms a square. The square lengths are 3 inches because 12-9 equals 3. 3^2= 9 which is the area of that square below the rectangle. Draw another line to separate the big rectangle into two rectangles. The smaller of these two new rectangles dimensions are 4 by 7 in. 7x4= 28 ft as the area of the smaller rectangle. The dimensions are the larger rectangle are 4 by 9 inch. The area of the larger rectangle is 36 inches.

36+28+9=73 in^2 as the total area.

If it takes Tanya 4.6 hours to get to her cousin's house while driving an average of 40 mph, how far away does her cousin live?
viva [34]
Her cousin lives 184 miles away

Explanation: In this problem you need to solve for the distance, and you are given speed and time. With this information, we need to use the speed formula which is s=d/t where s=speed, d=distance, and t=time

Next all you have to do is plug in your values, which should look like this-

40=d/4.6

Now that you have your equation, you must solve for d to get your distance by isolating d to one side of the equation. You do this, by multiplying 4.6 on each side of the equation.

This is what the math should look like-

(4.6)40=d/4.6(4.6)
184=d
d= 184 miles

I hope this helped!
