D=number of dogs
c=cats

d equals 4 less than 2 times c
d=-4+2c
20 dogs
d=20
subsitute
20=-4+2c
add 4
24=2c
divide 2
12=c
12 cats

Zx = 5g(2x - c) Use the Distributive Property
zx = 10gx -5cg Subtract 10gx from both side
zx - 10gx = -5cg Factor out the x
x (z - 10g) = -5cg Divide both sides by (z-10g)
X= -5cg/z-10g

Hope this helps and please mark me as brainlest and like:)

Answer: FIRST OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is important to remember that the Slope-Intercept form of the equation of a line is the shown below:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

By definiton, given a System of Linear equations, if they are exactly the same line, then the System of equations have Infinely many solutions.

In this case you have the following System of Linear equations given in the exercise:

\left \{ {{y=-2x+5} \atop {y=ax+b}} \right.

So, since you need the system has Infinite solutions, you know that the slope and the y-intercept of both lines must be equal.

Therefore, you can identify that the value of "a" and "b" must be the following:

a=-2\\\\b=5

So the Linear System would be the shown below:

\left \{ {{y=-2x+5} \atop {y=-2x+5}} \right.

Jasmine wants to eat at 8:00pm her meal takes 65mins to cook what time does she need to put the meal in the oven
densk [106]

Answer:

She needs to put the meal in the oven on or before 6:55pm.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Jasmine wants to eat at 8:00pm.

The time she needs to cook her meal = 65 mins.

To find the time she needs to put the meal in the oven, we have to subtract 65 mins from 8:00pm

65 mins = 1 hour and 5 mins.

So, 1 hour before 8:00pm is 7:00pm.

5 mins before 7:00pm is 6:55pm.

Hence, she needs to put the meal in the oven on or before 6:55pm so that she can't miss 800pm to eat.
