Answer:

Part A:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

Part B : 35 minutes

Part C : No

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Part A :

Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day

x+y= 95

Where:

x =the number of minutes Eric plays basketball

y= the number of minutes he plays volleyball  

He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he plays volleyball.

x = y+25

System:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

  • Part B:

Replacing x=y+25 on the first equation:

(y+25) + y =95

Solving for Y

y+25+y =95

25+2y=95

2y=95-25

2y=70

y = 70/2

y = 35 minutes

Part C : No

if x = 35

x+y= 95

35+y =95

y= 95-35

y = 60 minutes

Replacing y=60 on the other equation:

x = y+25

35 = 60+25

35 ≠85

A TRAFFIC LIGHT IS RED FOR 38 SECONDS YELLOW FOR 10 SECONDS AND GREEN FOR ONE MINUTE AND TWELVE SEONDS. IN A CONSTANTLY REPEATIN
morpeh [17]
The chance is 3/5 that the light will be green.

Added together the total seconds for the traffic light to complete the cycle is 120 (38+72 (1 min and 12 sec) +10.

And the green light proportion is: 72/120

We simplify by dividing by 12, which is a factor and we get: 6/10 that simplifies to 3/5.

Hope this helps!
