Answer:

Jamie has 44 pairs of shoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Jamie= x pairs of shoes

Suzie= 33 less than twice the amount of shoes Jamie has

2x - 33 = 55

Solve:

2x - 33 = 55

Collect like terms

2x = 55 + 33

2x = 88

Divide both sides by 2

2x / 2 = 88 / 2

x = 44

Jamie = x = 44 pairs of shoes

Therefore, Jamie has 44 pairs of shoes

Look at this system of equations.<br> 2x +5 =9.5<br> 3x + 5y =10.5<br> What is the value of x+y
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x = 2.25 y = 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = 9.5- 5

2x = 4.5

x = 4.5 ÷ 2

x = 2.25

know we now what is x so in the second one we evaluate x

3(2.25) + 5y = 10.5

6.75 + 5y = 10.5

5y = 10.5- 6.75

5y = 3.75

y = 3.75 ÷ 5

y = 0.75

that's it !

if you want to check your answer you can evaluate x and y so it will be like

2×2.25 + 5

= 4.5 + 5 = 9.5

and

3× 2.25 +5×0.75

= 6.75 + 3.75 = 10.5

So 13 divided by 3 is 4 but where is the 4 coming from because 4 groups of 3 is 12 so 13 minus 12 is 1 so how dose the 4 make it
Crazy boy [7]
13/3= 4.25 because.....



13-12 is 1.

SO:


When you have your problem  set up, you have 4, and then a 1 left over. You turn it into a fraction.


Make 4 and 1/4, then put it as a mixed number, 4 1/4



or you can keep dividing by adding a decimal then zeroes and keep solving until you get 4.25 which is equivalent to 4 1/4

You can just 1) multiply the binomial by itself, or you can use 2) the square of a binomial pattern. I'll show it to you both ways.

1) Multiply the binomial by itself.

(3x - 2)^2 = (3x - 2)(3x - 2) =

Multiply every term of the first binomial by every term of the second binomial, then collect like terms. (This is often called using FOIL.)

= 9x^2 - 6x - 6x + 4

= 9x^2 - 12x + 4

2) Use the square of a binomial pattern

The square of a binomial is

(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab - b^2

a^2 is the square of the first term.
b^2 is the square of the second term.
-2ab is the product of the two terms and 2.

You have

(3x - 2)^2,
where the first term is 3x, and the second term is -2

square the first term: 9x^2
square the last term: 4
the product of the terms and 2 is: -12x

Put it all together, and you get

9x^2 - 12x + 4

just like we got above with the other method.

What is the answer to the problem 2/3x-40=5/6(x+36)
miss Akunina [59]

2/3x-40=5/6(x+36)

multiply each side by 6 to get rid of the fraction

6* 2/3x- 6*40=6*5/6(x+36)

4x -240 = 5(x+36)

distribute

4x-240 = 5x +180

subtract 4x from each side

-240 = x +180

subtract 180 from each side

-420 =x
