According to the question,
Let,
"n" represent the number of miles semir walked.
"y" represent the number of miles sarah walked.
Now, according to the question,
y = 2n - 5 ........................this is your equation
Also,
the question states, each of them collect $18 in pledges for every miles walked.
Given,
Sarah collected $450
Now,
Using unitary method,
Sarah collects $18 for 1 mile
Sarah collects $1 for (1 / $18) mile
Sarah collects $450 for (1 / 18) * 450 mile
= 25 miles
So, Sarah walks 25 miles.
Now,
Taking equation,
y = 2n - 5
Since, y is the no. of miles sarah walked, we can write 25 in place of "y" So,
(25) = 2n - 5
25 + 5 = 2n
30 = 2n
30 / 2 = n
15 = n
Since, "n" is the no. of miles that semir walked, Semir walked 15 miles.
Answer:
589 books in total
Step-by-step explanation:
fiction books= 381
non-fiction= 381-47= 271
total amount of books(ficton books and non-fiction books together)= 589 books in total
move the decimal point 2 places to the left
42.6 /
= 0.426

Answer:
RS = √(b² +(c -a)²)
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the given point coordinates in the given formula:
- R = (x₁, y₁) = (0, a)
- S = (x₂, y₂) = (b, c)
RS = √((b -0)² +(c -a)²)
RS = √(b² +(c -a)²)
