After paying for the flat rate, she has 10-3.25=6.75 left.

With 6.75 she can go for 6.75/0.75 = 9 miles

Note: solving by reasoning is often faster than mechanically forming an equation.

It’s a new semester! Students are grouped into three clubs, which each has 10, 4 and 5 students. In how many ways can teacher se
ozzi

Here we must see in how many different ways we can select 2 students from the 3 clubs, such that the students <em>do not belong to the same club. </em>We will see that there are 110 different ways in which 2 students from different clubs can be selected.

So there are 3 clubs:

  • Club A, with 10 students.
  • Club B, with 4 students.
  • Club C, with 5 students.

The possible combinations of 2 students from different clubs are

  • Club A with club B
  • Club A with club C
  • Club B with club C.

The number of combinations for each of these is given by the product between the number of students in the club, so we get:

  • Club A with club B: 10*4 = 40
  • Club A with club C: 10*5 = 50
  • Club B with club C. 4*5 = 20

For a total of 40 + 50 + 20 = 110 different combinations.

This means that there are 110 different ways in which 2 students from different clubs can be selected.

Seven x's and 3y's cost as much as 4z's. One z costs as much as 1x plus 1y together. How many x's cost as much as 1y?
Pie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

7x + 3y = 4z

<em>Second equation</em>

x + y = z                          Multiply the entire equation by 4

4[x + y = z]                      Now distribute the 4 through the equation

4x + 4y = 4z                    Both equations = 4z. Equate the lefts.

<em>Third equation   </em>

7x+3y = 4x + 4y              Subtract 3y from both sides

7x + 3y -3y = 4x + 4y -3y

7x = y + 4x                      Subtract 4x from both sides

7x - 4x = y + 4x - 4x       Combine

3x = y

Answer: 3x = y

Write a pair of equivalent expressions using distributive property
bulgar [2K]
The distributive property "distributes" a number through all numbers/terms in a set of parentheses by multiplication.


EXAMPLES
Equivalent expressions are the first and last steps. The middle step just shows the work.

5(2 + 3x)= (5*2) + (5*3x)= 7 + 15x

4(2x + 4y)= (4*2x) + (4*4y)= 8x + 16y

10(4x + 5)= (10*4x) + (10*5)= 40x + 50


ANSWER:
Only one pair below is needed for your answer.

5(2 + 3x)= 7 + 15x

4(2x + 4y)= 8x + 16y

10(4x + 5)= 40x + 50


Hope this helps! :)
