Given that Trent's watch runs at half the speed it should run, this implies that
for every hour passed, his watch moves by half an hour.
Hence, for every half-hour passed, Trent's watch moves by 15 minutes.
Hence, when the real time is 10:30 am, Trent's watch will show 9:15 am.
Answer:
x=0
y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Two equations with two unknowns can be solved. Use the three steps given below.
In general you can save time if you use the simplest expression for step 1. You can choose either expression to start with x =.. or you can rewrite it, so it starts with y =...
FOLLOW THESE STEPS:
1. Rewrite the first expression so it starts with y =...
2. Then use that expression and substitute it in the other expression, to find the value for x.
3. Use that value found in step 2. and substitute it in the rewritten expssion you created in step 1. Solve this last expression and you'll get the value for y.
Step 1.
-6y + 11x = -36
-6y = -11x -36
multiply left and right of the = sign by -1
6y = 11x + 36
divide left and right of the = sign by 6
y = 11x/6 + 36/6
y = 11/6x + 6
Step 2.
-4 * ( y ) + 7x = -24
-4 * ( 11/6x + 6 ) + 7x = -24
( -44/6x - 24 ) + 7x = -24
-44/6x + 7x = -24 + 24
You can see immediately that ...x = 0
Just for fun of it ....
-44/6x + 42/6x = 24 - 24
(-44+42)/6x = 0
-2/6x = 0
-1/3x = 0
multiply left and right of the = sign by -3
3/3x = 0 * -3
x = 0
Step 3.
y = 11/6( x ) + 6. and substitute x = 0 gives:
y = 11/6( 0) + 6
y = 0 + 6
y = 6
Answer:
4 red marbles and 6 blue marbles is the correct answwer
Step-by-step explanation:
X=22
y=3
Pardon if I am wrong, but all you do is divide 172/8 then divide that by 6. Good Luck.
