You would know by how the problem is written for example if a equation is written like this (2+3)5 you add 2+3 first then multiply by 5 to get 25 therefore you add first

Mark made a scale drawing of a soccer field, using a scale of .5 cm=1m. The actual length of the field is 110 m. What is the len
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The length of the field on the drawing is <u>55 cm</u> that is option <u>D</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mark made a scale drawing of a soccer field, using a scale of .5 cm=1 m.

The actual length of the field is 110 m.

Now, to find the length of the field on the drawing.

Let the length of the field on drawing be x\ cm.

As given,

Drawing of a soccer field, using a scale of 0.5 cm=1 m.

So, 0.5 cm is equivalent to 1 m.

Thus, x\ cm is equivalent to 110 m.

Now, to get the length of the field on the drawing by using cross multiplication:

\frac{0.5}{1} =\frac{x}{110}

By cross multiplying we get:

55=x

x=55\ cm

Therefore, the length of the field on the drawing is 55 cm that is option D.

The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 552. What is the 1st number?
wariber [46]

Answer:

Let 2n = the first of three consecutive even numbers, where n is an integer.

Let 2n + 2 = the second of three consecutive even numbers, and

Let 2n + 4 = the third of three consecutive even numbers.

We're given that "sum of three consecutive even numbers is 552." We can translate this English sentence mathematically into the following equation to be solved for n:

2n + (2n + 2) + (2n + 4) = 552

Removing the parentheses, we have:

2n + 2n + 2 + 2n + 4 = 552

Now, by the Commutative Law of Addition, i.e., a + b = b + a, we have on the left side of the equation:

2n + 2n + 2n + 2 + 4 = 552

Now, collecting like-terms on the left, we get:

6n + 6 = 552

To solve for the variable n, We now begin isolating n on the left side by subtracting 6 from both sides as follows:

6n + 6 - 6 = 552 - 6

6n + 0 = 546

6n = 546

Now, divide both sides by 6 to finally solve for n:

(6n)/6 = 546/6

(6/6)n = 546/6

(1)n = 91

n = 91

Therefore, the first of three consecutive even numbers, 2n, is:

2n = 2(91)

= 182

The second of three consecutive even numbers is:

2n + 2 = 2(91) + 2

= 182 + 2

= 184

The third of three consecutive even numbers is:

2n + 4 = 2(91) + 4

= 182 + 4

= 186

CHECK:

2n + (2n + 2) + (2n + 4) = 552

182 + 184 + 186 = 552

552 = 552

Therefore, the desired and first of three consecutive even numbers is indeed 2n = 182.

Solve by substitution ANSWER NOW
Maslowich
Y = -5x + 9
y = 5x + 7

5x + 7 = -5x + 9
5x + 5x = 9 - 7
10x = 2
x = 2/10 reduces to 1/5

y = 5x + 7
y = 5(1/5) + 7
y = 1 + 7
y = 8

solution is (1/5,8)
