Let b = x

a = x + 773

x + <span>x + 773 = 177973

2x + </span><span>773 = 177973

2x = </span>177973<span> - 773

2x = 177200

x = </span>177200<span>/2

x = 88600

The other is x + 773,  =  8860</span>0<span> + 773 = 89373

Each country is </span><span>88600</span> and 89373 square kilometers.

Solve the system of equations below using the substitution method. x = y + 7 / 2 4x − 2y = 8
Verdich [7]

Answer:

y = -3

x = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

4(y + \frac{7}{2}) - 2y = 8  Distribute the 4.  Multiply everything in the parentheses by 4

4y + 14 - 2y = 8           4(\frac{7}{2}) = \frac{28}{2} = 14  Combine the like terms 4y and -2y

2y + 14 = 8         Subtract 14 from both sides

2y =  -6               Divide both sides by 2

y = -3  

Plug -3 in for y in either original equation.

4x - 2y = 8

4x -2(-3) = 8

4x + 6 = 8    Subtract 6 from both sides

4x = 2  Divide both sides by 4

x = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}

Check:

x = y + \frac{7}{2}

\frac{1}{2} = -3+ \frac{7}{2}

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{-6}{2} + \frac{7}{2}

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

4x - 2y = 8

4(\frac{1}{2}) - 2(-3) = 8

2 + 6 = 8

8 = 8

During a period of extreme cold, the average daily temperature dropped decreased by 112°F day. How many days did it take for the
NNADVOKAT [17]

It takes about 4 days for the temperature to decrease by 9°F.

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables or numbers.

Let x represent the number of days. Given that the temperature drop decreased by 1 1/2°F each day (- 1 1/2), for it to decrease by 9°F (-9):

-1 1/2 * x = -9

-1.5x = - 9

x = 4 days

It takes about 4 days for the temperature to decrease by 9°F.
