Remark. The easiest way to solve this is to make the coefficients of one of the letters = to the same coefficient in the other equation

Set up and solve
x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100   Multiply the first equation by 3
<u>3x + 3y =   72  </u> Subtract
2y =           28   Divide by 2
y   =           28/2
y   =           14  <<<<<<  Answer for y

Step 2
Solve for x
x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24    Subtract 14 from both sides.
x = 24 - 14
x = 10  <<<<Answer for x

Check to see if it works.

3x + 5y = 100
3*10 + 5*14 = 100
30 + 70 = 100        Checks.

There are 10 three point  question
There are  14 five point questions.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The answer is the 1st option, y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the amount of days that the 4 dollars will be multiplied by

( 4 * x )

The + 3 is the money that George already had in his savings account, so that money will be added to the total amount in his savings account.

( 4x + 3 )

Lastly, the y stands for the total amount of money in his savings account so the answer is the 1st option.

y = 4x + 3

In triangle ABC, AB measures 25 cm and AC measures 35 cm. The inequality &lt; s &lt; represents the possible third side length o
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The inequality 10 < s < 60 represents the possible third side length of the triangle, s in centimeters.

The inequality 70 < p < 120 represents the possible values for the perimeter p, of the triangle in centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firsts one The lower number has to be the difference between the bigger number and smaller number. In this case 35 - 25 = 10 and the s < 60 has to be the sum of both numbers.

Second one. I'm assuming it's just the sum of the two numbers to the first answer, and the second number is just the second number from the previous one, but multiplied by 2. Sorry that I couldn't go into too much detail about this one
