So,
We'll just use A to represent both Jan and Mya's miles, since they ran the same number.
We have the equations:
1. Jan (J) = Mya (M)
2. Sara (S) = M - 8
3. 2A + S = 64
J = M
S = M - 8
We'll just use A to represent both J and M.
S = M - 8
We'll use Elimination by Substitution.
2A + A - 8 = 64
Collect Like Terms
3A - 8 = 64
Add 8 to both sides
3A = 72
Divide both sides by 3
A = 24
Since
A = J
and
A = M
and
J = M
then
J = 24
M = 24
Substitute
S = 24 - 8
S = 16
Check
24 + 24 + 16 = 64
64 = 64 This checks.
So,
J = 24
M = 24
S = 16
Answer:
27x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First off, we use commutative property to get the like terms together.
(20x + 7x) - (3-5)
Now we can solve the equations inside the parenthesis.
27x - (-2)
Because these aren't like terms, this is as far as we can go. Meaning 27x - 2
is out answer.
Given: Points (-9, 6) and (-3, 9)
Find: The slope of the line that goes through those two points
Solution: In order to find the slope of the line that goes through the points that were provided we have to use the slope formula. This formula subtracts the y-coordinates from each other and also the x-coordinates from each other to determine the rise/run which would give us the rate of change.
<u>Plug in the values</u>
<u>Simplify the expression</u>
Therefore, looking at the given options we can see that the best fitting one would be option A, 1/2.
Consumer Price Index or also most commonly known as CPI is calculated through the equation,
CPI = (price at a certain year / price at base year) x 100
Since, we have chosen 2014 as the base year, the denominator of the fraction will be $86. Calculating the CPI for 2015,
CPI = ($90/$86) x 100
= <em>104.65</em>
