Answer:

B. c= -c+2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. ...................

c+2=c+2
c-c= 2-2
0=0

It has infinitely many solutions as the equation is correct for any value of c.

B. ...................

c= -c+2
c+c= 2
2c = 2
c = 2/2
c= 1

It has one solution only

C. ...................

c+2=c-2
c-c= -2 - 2
0 = -4

It has no solution as this equation is incorrect

D. ...................

c-c=2
0 = 2

It has no solution as this equation is incorrect

I'm assuming you mean

$2\times\frac{17}{10}$

Write the 2 as a fraction 2/1 and multiply.

$\frac{2}{1}\times\frac{17}{10}=\frac{34}{10}=\frac{17}{5}$

2x+3y=9 2x+y=7 simultaneous equation

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

x=3 and y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract equation 2 from 1

then (2x+3y) -(2x+y) =9-7

2x-2x+3y-y =2

2y=2 therefore y=1

substitute y value in 2x+y=7

2x+1=7

2x=7-1

2x=6

x=3

In Lixue’s garden, the green pepper plants grew 5 inches in 34 month. At this rate, how many feet can they grow in one month? (L

beks73 [17]

Answer:

<h2>0.15 inches per month</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

step one:

This problem is focused on the growth rate of a plant.

given data

the plants grow 5 inches in 34 months

and also that 1 month= 4 weeks

step two:

We can still say that

if 34 months see a growth of 5 inches

then 1 months will be X inches

cross multiply we have

X= 5/32 inches

step three:

converting this number to decimal we have

X= 0.15 inches per month

Therefore the growth rate would be

0.15 inches per month

suppose 60% of kids who visit a doctor have a fever, and 20% of kids with a fever have sore throats. what's the probability that

kkurt [141]

Answer:

0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose there are 100 kids

60% have fever, so what is 60% of 100?

We convert percentage to decimal and multiply:

60/100 = 0.6

0.6 * 100 = 60 have fever

20% of the people having fever (60 of them) have sore throats, so,

What is 20% of 60?

We convert percentage to decimal and multiply:

20/100 = 0.2

0.2 * 60 = 12 have sore throat

So, how many people are there with fever AND sore throat, that is 12. We took initially there to be 100 people. Hence, the probability is:

$\frac{12}{100}=0.12$
