Four families went out for lunch. The total food

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Each family spent about 34.25 on dinner

Step-by-step explanation:

$167 - $30 (tip) = 137

137 ÷ 4 (for each family) = 34.25

BUT

if each family is seperate than they each spent about 11.75 on dinner

167 - (30 x 4) = 47

47 ÷ 4 = 11.75

I'm pretty sure the first one is the answer though

For the following system, if you isolated x in the first equation to use the substitution method, what expression would you subs

alekssr [168]

Answer:

$x=2y+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the system:

$-x+2y=-6\\3x+y=8$

If we isolate the x-variable in the first equation:

$-x+2y=-6$

Subtract 2y from both sides:

$-x=-6-2y$

Divide both sides by -1:

$x=2y+6$

Therefore, we would substitute the above into the second equation:

$3x+y=8\\3(2y+6)+y=8$

The answer is 2y+6

Further notes:

To solve for the system, distribute:

$6y+18+y=8$

Simplify:

$7y+18=8$

Subtract:

$7y=-10$

Divide:

$y=-10/7\approx-1.4286$

Now, substitute this value back into the isolated equation:

$x=2(-10/7)+6\\x=-20/7+42/7\\x=22/7\approx3.1429$

68 miles to 42.5 miles

Thepotemich [5.8K]

1) subtract 42.5 miles from 68 miles to find the gross change in distance: It is 25.5. Since this is a decrease, write -25.5 miles.
2) divide -25.5 miles by the original distance, 68 miles:
-0.375
3) multiply this by 100% to find the percentage decrease:
-37.5% (answer)

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

$\tan D=\frac{7}{4},\\\\\sin D=\frac{7}{8.1}, \\\\\cos D=\frac{4}{8.1}, \\\\GI=5.0$

Step-by-step explanation:

In any right triangle, the following is true:

The sine of any angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle. (o/h)

The cosines of any angle is equal to its adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse. (a/h)

The tangent of any angle is equal to its opposite side divided by its adjacent side. (o/a)

Thus,

$\text{3. }\\\tan D=\frac{7}{4},\\\\\sin D=\frac{7}{8.1}, \\\\\cos D=\frac{4}{8.1},$

$\text{4. }\tan 68^{\circ}=\frac{GI}{2},\\GI=2\tan68^{\circ}=4.95017370683\approx \boxed{5.0}$
