Carl is 2 yrs older than bob. Because Alan+Carl is 2 more than Alan+bob
So bob=16 and Carl is 18
16+18=34
And Alan is 24
A. Alright, we want to multiply one equation by a constant to make it cancel out with the second. Since the first equation has a "blank" y, let's multiply the first equation by <em>2</em>.
3x-y=0 → 2(3x-y=0) = 6x - 2y = 0
5x+2y=22
The answer for this part would be: 6x - 2y = 0 and 5x + 2y = 22
B. So now we combine them:
6x - 2y = 0
+ + +
5x + 2y = 22
= = =
11x + 0 = 22 ← The answer
C. Now that we have the equation 11x = 22, we solve for x
11x = 22 ← Divide both sides by 11
x = 2 ← The answer
D. Now that we have x=2, we plug that back in to 5x+2y=22 and solve for y:
5(2)+2y = 22
10 + 2y = 22
2y = 12
y = 6
<u>Therefore, the solution to this problem is x = 2 and y = 6</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two values are inversely proportional, their product must be maintained. That way, if one value goes up, the other goes down by the same extent.
Therefore, if 
and 
vary inversely, their product will be the same for all values of 
and 
.
Let 
and 
as given in the problem. Substitute values:
Hence, the maintained product is 
.
Thus, we have the following equation:
Substitute 
to find the value of 
when :
Answer:
both are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
there are two side tails and heads so there a 1/2 chance it will land on heads
