Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15
Answer:
part A) The scale factor of the sides (small to large) is 1/2
part B) Te ratio of the areas (small to large) is 1/4
part C) see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A) Determine the scale factor of the sides (small to large).
we know that
The dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional
so
Let
z ----> the scale factor
The scale factor is equal to
substitute
simplify
Part B) What is the ratio of the areas (small to large)?
<em>Area of the small triangle</em>
<em>Area of the large triangle</em>
ratio of the areas (small to large)
Part C) Write a generalization about the ratio of the sides and the ratio of the areas of similar figures
In similar figures the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor
In similar figures the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
Answer:
66.69
Step-by-step explanation:
You start off with -3.9 x -5.7 which gives you a positive, and that positive is 22.23, then you multiply that number by 3, and you get 66.69.

Answer:
(X, Y, Z) = (-2, 3, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can subtract the second equation from the first to get ...
Y -Z = 0
We can add the third equation to the first to get ...
Z = 3
Then ...
Y -3 = 0 ⇒ Y = 3
and ...
X -3 -2(3) = -11
X = -2 . . . . . . . . . add 9
The solution is ...
(X, Y, Z) = (-2, 3, 3)
You have to combine like terms, so the variable (x, y, s, d, c....) and the exponents must be the same in order to combine them.
For example:
x² + x³ Since they don't have the same exponent, you can't combine them
y² + 3y² = 4y²
23x + x = 24x
4. 2s² + 1 + s² - 2s + 1 You can rearrange it if it makes it easier
2s² + s² - 2s + 1 + 1 = 3s² - 2s + 2
5. 5t² - 2t - 1 - (3t² - 5t + 7) Distribute/multiply the - to (3t² - 5t + 7)
5t² - 2t - 1 - 3t² + 5t - 7 = 2t² + 3t - 8
Do the same for #9 and #10, and you should get:
9. 2k² + 5k - 9
10. 6y³ - 7y² - 6y - 12
