Substitute the value of y in the equation as -1,
(-1)^2-31(-1)-17 = 1+31-17 = 15
If lines a and b are parallel, then aº = 79º = dº = bº.
28.3
Step-by-step explanation:
the difference is the answer to a subtraction problem so we can plug in our numbers like this
25.6-(-2.7) which equals 28.3
a good thing to remember when subtracting negative numbers is that a positive and negative won't always make a negative like in this example
No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95
<h3>How to form a linear equation</h3>
Let the time taken to play basketball be "x"
Let the time taken to play volleyball be "y"
According to the information given, Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day, then;
x + y = 95
If he plays basketball for 25 minutes long, then;
x = 25
The pair of linear equations that represents the statement are:
x + y = 95
x = 25
The time it takes Eric to play volleyball every day is expressed as:
y = 95 - x
y = 95 - 25
y = 70 minutes
No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95
