The numbers DO differ by 10 if they are
- 1 and 11
- 2 and 12
- 3 and 13
- 4 and 14
- 5 and 15
Each outcome technically has two ways of occurring, but since we're taking two marbles at a time, that would be the same as saying, for instance, that drawing 1 and 11 is the same as drawing 11 and 1. We only count such an event once.
So the answer is (a) 5.
Answer:
x = 1 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let apples are represented by x
and let oranges are represented by y
You purchase 5 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of oranges for $9. This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 2y = 9
Your friend purchases 5 pounds of apples and 6 pounds of oranges for $17.
This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 6y = 17
Now we have two equations:
5x + 2y = 9 -> eq (i)
5x + 6y = 17 -> eq(ii)
We can solve these equations to find the value of x and y.
Subtracting eq(i) from eq(ii)
5x + 6y = 17
5x + 2y = 9
- - -
_________
0+4y= 8
=> 4y = 8
y= 8/4
y = 2
Now, putting value of y in eq (i)
5x + 2y = 9
5x +2(2) = 9
5x +4 = 9
5x = 9-4
5x = 5
x = 1
so, x = 1 and y = 2
John has $5,000 in his savings. That’s the total.
He has to give his sister $50 for her birthday.
He also spends $450 for his car payment.
We can easily put this into an equation.
50x-450=5000
Now we have to solve it.
50x-450=5000
-450 -450
50x=5000-450
50x=4550
50x/50=4550/50
x=91
So it will take 91 months to spend his $5,000.
Answer:2-4h
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2-0.9h)+(-1.3h-4)
6-2.7h-1.3h-4
6-4h-4
2-4h
