Answer:

The Answer is: The first number is 5 and the second one is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f = first number and s = second number

Twice the first number added to the second number is 18:

2f + s = 18

The second number is equal to 4 times the first number minus 12:

s = 4f - 12

Substitute:

2f + (4f - 12) = 18

6f - 12 = 18

6f = 18 + 12

6f = 30

f = 5, is the first number.

Solve for the 2nd number:

s = 4(5) - 12 = 20 - 12 = 8, is the second number.

Proof:

2f + s = 18

2(5) + 8 = 18

18 = 18

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day! :-)

Esther drove to work in the morning at an average speed of 45 miles per hour. She returned home in the evening along the same ro
nydimaria [60]
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.

45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x

Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.

Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.

Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.

45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

<span>Hope that makes a little sense. And I also hope it's right</span>

On weekends a movie ticket costs $10.50. form an inequality and solve it to find the maximum number of tickets kate can buy with
Greeley [361]

$10.50

10 Tickets would be $105.00

$105.00 - $10.50 = $94.50 so 9 Tickets would be $94.50

$105.00 + $94.50 = $199.50

$205.00 - $199.50 = $5.50 which isn't enough for another ticket.

10 Tickets + 9 Tickets = 19 Tickets.
