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

Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle, the midline joining the midpoints of two sides is parallel to the third side and half as long, so
FB = EC/2
2x - 6 = 44/2
2x - 6 = 22
2x = 22 + 6
2x = 28
x = 28/2
x = 14
2x + 3y = 630
x + y = 245 then you want to get rid of x so in the second equation × by -2 and get -2x -2y =-490 subtract this equation from the first to get y=$140 substitute 140 in for y and get x= $105 and 2x=210 and 3y=420 210 +420=630
(x+6)(x+8) = 0
x = -6 or x = -8
I'm just wondering, does the equation happen to be 2x^2 + 14x + 48? That would make more sense with the answer I got.
