Answer:For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
x: amount of time Miguel uses to complete the task.
y: amount of time Maria uses to complete the task.
We write the system of equations:
x + y = 60
y = (1/2) x
Solving the system we have:
x = 40 minutes
y = 20 minutes
Answer:
it take her to wash them by herself about:
y = 20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Use two points to find the slope
Answer:
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
In both questions you want to get the x alone.
1.
-3x + (-6) = 9
First you want to add 6 to both sides so you'll be left with:
-3x = 15
Next, you want to divide both sides by -3 and you'll get:
x = -5
2.
-4x + (-12) = 8
You want to do the same thing as the first one so you'll add 12 to both sides:
-4x = 20
Then, you will divide both sides by -4 and get:
x = -5
Answer: DO I LOOK GOOD?
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1 = m (x-x1) y+3 = (1/4)(x+4) [using point (x1,y1)] or y–1 = (1/4)(x–12) [using point (x2,y2] [let's use this one since you did] To put this into Standard Form (Ax+By=C), y–1 = (1/4)(x–12) 4y - 4 = x - 12 -x + 4y - 4 = -12 [subtract x from both sides] -x + 4y = -8 [add 4 to both sides] x - 4y = 8 [multiply by (-1) to have x-coefficient positive
