Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3y + 15 = 9
Subtract 15 from each side
2/3y + 15-15 = 9-15
2/3y = -6
Multiply each side by 3/2 to isolate y
3/2 * 2/3y = -6 *3/2
y = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
What this is saying is...20 is a whole number; but 3/4 is not. What they are saying is, if you have to add a mixed number with a whole number, you can add both of the whole numbers together. Then, you add the 3/4 at the end...because it is not a whole number. You can break apart a mixed number by separating the whole number and the fraction.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
m∠1 = 52°
m∠3 = 52°
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Since b is a straight line and is transversed by line m and we are given m∠6 = 128°, we can find m∠5, which is 180 - m∠6, giving us 52° for ∠5.
Step 2:
Because a and b are parallel, m∠5 and the m∠1 are the same, so we have m∠1 = 52° as one of our answers needed
Step 3: Because ∠3 is vertical to ∠1, we can use the vertical angles theory and say that m∠1 is equal to m∠3. Therefore, m∠3 = 52°
Price of boots is represented as x, price of tennis shoes is represented as y.
x-y=44.38
x+y=196.12
Isolate x. (Or y, if you wanted to)
x=y+44.38
x=196.12-y
Set them equal to each other.
y+44.38=196.12-y
Solve for y. Then plug it in to either of the two original equations to find x.
x=120.24
y=75.86
Note: This is assuming that the boots are more expensive than the tennis shoes. If the tennis shoes are more expensive than the boots, then the prices would be switched. I didn't find this clear in your question.
