Answer:
A: x + y = 55; y - x = 25
B: 15 minutes running
C: no
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part A:</h3>
The two equations relate to the total number of minutes, and to the difference specified in the problem statement.
x + y = 55 . . . . . . total time is 55 minutes
y = x + 25 . . . . . . dances 25 minutes longer
__
<h3>Part B:</h3>
We can substitute for y in the first equation to find the value of x, the time spent running.
x + (x +25) = 55
2x = 30 . . . . subtract 25
x = 15 . . . . . . divide by 2
Jackie spends 15 minutes running each day.
__
<h3>Part C:</h3>
The value of y from is found using the second equation:
y = x +25 = 15 +25 = 40
Jackie <u>will not spend 45 minutes dancing</u> if she meets the requirements on times.
Answer:
6x^2 -11x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x^2 + 3) - (6x + 4) + (3x^2 - 5x)
Distribute the minus sign
(3x^2 + 3) - 6x - 4) + (3x^2 - 5x)
Combine like terms
3x^2 + 3x^2 - 6x - 5x -4+3
6x^2 -11x -1
C, x = +-7. Difference of squares
Answer:
1. 0.8 cm
2. 1.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
The scale for 2nd map is 1 cm to 50 km, that means "1 cm on map" is "50 km in real life".
We already know distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati is 40 km, which is less than 50, so we know the distance on map would be less than 1 cm.
So we set up ratio and figure out (let x be distance on map from Cleveland to Cincinnati):

Hene, 0.8 centimeters would be the distance in 2nd map
2.
A scale of 1:50 means 1 cm equal 50 cm
So, 0.8m would be
0.8 * 100 = 80 cm
Hence, 80 cm would be represented by 80/50 on the map, that is:

That is 1.6 centimeters
