15)

m = Miguel Indurian titles amount        l = Lance Armstrong titles amount

they both won titles to the tour de france, if we add all together, they sum up to 12 for both of them
so.. whatever "m" and "l" are, we could say that m + l = 12

now... Miguel won 2 fewer than Lance, so, whatever "l" is, m = l - 2
thus    \bf \begin{cases}
\boxed{m}=l-2\\\\
m+l=12\\
----------\\
\left( \boxed{l-2} \right)+l=12
\end{cases}

solve for "l", to see how many Lance won

how many did Miguel win? well,  m = l - 2

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

17)

c = mgs amount in 12oz cup of regular coffee at starbucks
d = mgs amount in 12oz cup of regular decaffeinated coffee at starbucks

we know the regular coffee cup, has 13 times more than the decaf, same 12ouncer

thus whatever "c" and "d" are, we know that c = 13d
both 12ouncers put together, yield 280mgs of caffeine

so, one could say that whatever "c" and "d" are, c + d = 280

thus      \bf \begin{cases}
\boxed{c}=13d\\\\
c+d=280\\
----------\\
\left(  \boxed{13d}\right)+d=280
\end{cases}

solve for "d" to see how much is in the decaffed cup

the regular coffee cup?  well c = 13d

Select the correct answer. Which point is a solution of x + 2y ≤ 4? A. (2, 4) B. (1, 1) C. (3, 5) D. (-1, 5)
stira [4]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Of you put the values of c and y from B in the equation, then the result is,

1 + 2 \times 1 \leqslant 4 \\ 1 + 2 \leqslant 4 \\ 3 \leqslant 4

here, 3 is less than 4, which is true.

But the result will come out as greater than 4 if you put other points in the equation, which is not true for the given condition.

The bus fare in a city is $2.00. People who use the bus have the option of purchasing a monthly coupon book for $28.00. With the
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

56 = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Bus fare = $2.00

coupon book = 28.00

bus fare w/ coupon book = $1.00

let x be the number of bus rides.

2.00x = 1.00x + 28.00

2.00x - 1.00x = 28.00

1x = 28.00

x = 28.00

24 bus rides for both to have the same cost.

2.00x = 1.00x + 28

2.00(28) = 1.00(28) + 28

56 = 28 + 28

56 = 56

What is the solution to the inequality below?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

B. x < -8 or x > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use process of elimination to solve this problem by going through every solution and testing them out, but let's jump right to B.

Process:

You know that since the inequality states that x^2 has to be greater than 64, x  has to be more than 8, or less than -8.

This is because 8^2 = 64, and -8^2 = 64, and the inequality requires the answer to be more than 64.

Looking at B., you can see that if x is < -8, the square of, for example, -9, would be 81. This is greater than 64, so this works!

Now, B. also has an alternative. The 'or' is a major clue to which is the correct answer, since the square root of any number can be positive or negative. (-8^2 = 8^2)

The 'or' states that x must be greater than 8. So, for example, if we take the square of 10, we get 100, and that is also greater than 64.

We've proven that this solution is accurate for both parts, so it is definitely the one we want!

Hope this helps!
