Let the number of houses the boys deliver newspaper = x
Matthew delivers 2x newspapers
His brother delivers x newspapers,
Matthew earns per paper = $0.10
Matthew delivers twice a week so he earns = 
His brother earns per newspaper = $0.25
So, equation becomes,
So, there are 31 houses where both these boys deliver newspapers.
Hence, Matthew delivers 2*31= 62 newspapers
His brother delivers 31 newspapers.
So, option A : Matthew: 62 papers; brother: 31 papers is the right option.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 km = 1000 meters
5 km = 5*1000 = 5000 meters
5 km and 5000 meters both measure the same length.
Answer: - 8, - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
On a number line, point E has coordinate of - 5
And EG = 3
HENCE, the possible coordinates of G could be :
EG is the distance between point E and point G
Possible coordinates
E - G = EG
-5 - G = 3
-5 - 3 = G
-8 = G
Also:
G - E = EG
G - ( - 5) = 3
G + 5 = 3
G = 3 - 5
G = - 2
You should have put a picture so ppl would know what the question is askin
Midpoint means 1/2 way
separate the x's and the y's find the middle of the x length, middle of the y length
x: 5 - 3 = 2 1/2 of 2 = 1 from either end (3 + 1) or (5-1) = 4
y: 3-(-5) = 8 1/2 of 8 = 4 from either end (3-4) or (-5 +4) = -1
midpoint is therefore (4, -1)
