Answer:
a) GCF = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
b)
X = first venture, y = second venture, z = third venture
x + y + z = 15,000
x + z = y + 7000
3x + 2y + 2z = 39,000
these are ur equations.....
x + y + z = 15,000
x - y + z = 7000
--------------------add
2x + 2z = 22,000
x + y + z = 15,000....multiply by -2
3x + 2y + 2z = 39,000
-------------------
-2x - 2y - 2z = - 30,000 (result of multiplying by -2)
3x + 2y + 2z = 39,000
------------------add
x = 9,000
2x + 2z = 22,000
2(9000) + 2z = 22000
18,000 + 2z = 22000
2z = 22000 - 18000
2z = 4000
z = 4000/2
z = 2,000
x + y + z = 15,000
9000 + y + 2000 = 15,000
11,000 + y = 15,000
y = 15,000 - 11,000
y = 4,000
first venture (x) = 9,000 <==
second venture (y) = 4,000 <==
third venture (z) = 2,000 <==
Cross multiply or just multiply both sides by 24
24x/6=36
4x=36
divide both sides by 4
x=9
Answer:
Calgary is the coldest
Step-by-step explanation:
The simple way to determine this will be to change the value of temperatures given in Fahrenheit to Celsius
32 F = 0°C
Formula to apply will be (T-32)×5/9 -------------where T is temperatures in Fahrenheit
Bangor is -3F-------------------change to Celsius
(-3-32)×5/9 =-35 × 5/9 = -19.44°C
Fairbanks is -12 ------------------------change to Celsius
(-12-32)×5/9 = -44 × 5/9 = -24.44°C
Fargo is -8 F ---------------------Change to Celsius
(-8-32)×5/9= -40×5/9 = -22.22°C
Calgary is -15 F-------------------------Change to Celsius
(-15-32)×5/9 = -47×5/9 = -26.11°C--------------coldest
