Answer:
- 6.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of - 2 (3.1) is - 6.2.
Brackets mean to multiply so we have to multiply the - 2 by 3.1 which gives a result of - 6.2.
Answer:
x= -10
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is y2-y1 over x2 over x1 so
1-(-2) over -9-(x)=3
1+2=3 over -9-(x)
3/-9-x times -9-x = 3 times -9-x
3=3(-9-x)
3=-27-3x
3+27=-3x
30= -3x
-10= 3x
hope it helps man!!! :)
ps may i have brainliest so i can level up
For the first one take the amount the pitcher can hold and multiply it by the amount of pitchers he makes
14.5 x 8 = 116 oz
For the second one take the amount made per oz and multiply it by the amount of oz he made
0.25 x 116 = $29
Let the first number be represented by "x".
Let the second number be represented by "y".
"Four times a number..." = 4x
"... minus 5..." = 4x - 5
"... times another number..." = y(4x - 5)
"... is equal to 21." = y(4x - 5) = 21
y(4x - 5) = 21
"Three times the sum of the two numbers (x & y) is 36." = 3(x +y) = 36
3(x + y) = 36
y(4x - 5) = 21
1) solve for "y"
1) y(4x - 5) = 21
2) 4xy - 5y = 21
3) 4xy/4x - 5y = 21/4x
(what you do to one side of the equals sign, you must do to the other so 4x cancels out on the left side, and on the right side you have to divide 21 by 4x)
4) y - 5y/-5 = 5.25x/-5
5) y + y = -1.05x
6) 2y = -1.05x
7) 2y/2 = -1.05x/2
8) y = -.525x
2) substitute "y" in for the second equation
1) 3(x + (-.525x)) = 36
(notice how you now only have x's in this equation)
3) solve for x
1) 3x - 1.575x = 36
2) 1.425x = 36
3) 1.425x/1.425 = 36/1.425
4) x = 25.3
4) finish finding "y" in either one of the equations using the answer you got for "x"
1) y(4(25.3) - 5) = 21
2) y(101.2 - 5) = 21
3) y(96.2) = 21
4) 96.2y = 21
5) 96.2y/96.2 = 21/96.2
6) y = .22
5) check your work by substituting the two answers back into one of the equations
1) .22(4(25.3) - 5) = 21
2) .22(101.2 - 5) = 21
3) .22(96.2) = 21
4) 21.164 = 21
(round down to get the answer)
