X represent the number of laps Marcy swam, 114x represent the number of times Toni swam.
20 + 0.80(114x) + 15 + 0.85x = 257
20 + 91.2x + 15 + 0.85x = 257
92.05x + 35 = 257
Required equation is 92.05x + 35 = 257
The equation factors as
.. (x +3)(x +4) = 0
By the zero-product rule, the roots are
.. x1 = -4
.. x2 = -3

Answer:
AE = CE = 23; BE = DE = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the values of the variables in their place and do the arithmetic.
AE = 2u+5 = 2(9) +5 = 23
BE = 6v-1 = 6(3.5) -1 = 20
CE = 3u-4 = 3(9) -4 = 23
DE = 8v-8 = 8(3.5) -8 = 20
The diagonals cross at their midpoints, so the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Answer:
do distributive property on both, so multiply 6•x and 6•-4. then multiply 7•x and 7•3.
so it'll basically be 6x - 24 = 7x + 21.
then add 24 to both sides so: 6x - 24 + 24 = 7x + 21 + 24. since -24+24=0 it'll be 6x = 7x + 21 + 24.
then add 21 + 24 and that will be 45.
so 6x = 7x + 45
then subtract 7x from both sides 6x - 7x = 7x + 45 - 7x
that'll be -x = 7x + 45 - 7x
combine like terms (7x - 7x) = 0
so -x = 45
and since x can't be negative, do the opposite signs
so instead of -x = 45, make it x = -45
Hope it helped! (sorry that's its very long just wanted to show u the steps just in case)
