A - 1.2b = - 3         ⇒ eq. 1
0.2b + 0.6a = 12   ⇒ eq. 2

a - 1.2b = - 3  
a = 1.2b - 3           ⇒ eq. 3

Substitute eq. 3 to eq. 2
0.2b + 0.6(1.2b - 3) = 12
0.2b + .72b - 1.8 = 12
Combine like terms
0.92b = 12 + 1.8
0.92b = 13.8   ⇒ divide both sides by 0.92 to get the value of b
<span>b = 15

</span>Substitute the value of b to eq. 3
a = 1.2b - 3
a = 1.2(15) - 3 
<span>a = 15

</span>to check: substitute the values of a and b to:
eq. 1
a - 1.2b = - 3 
15 - (1.2)(15) = -3 
15 - 18 = - 3 
- 3 = -3    ⇒ correct!

eq. 2 
0.2b + 0.6a = 12 
(0.2)(15) + (0.6)(15) = 12
3 + 9 = 12
12 = 12   ⇒ correct!

Write each phrase as an algebraic expression.<br> 16 seconds faster than Aya’s time.
Anna35 [415]

Given:

The given phrase is 16 seconds faster than Aya’s time.

To find:

The algebraic expression for the given phrase.

Solution:

Let x be the Aya’s time.

16 seconds faster than Aya’s time. It means 16 seconds less than Aya’s time.

We know that a negative sign "-" is used for less than.

16 seconds less than Aya’s time = x-16

16 seconds faster than Aya’s time = x-16

Therefore, the required algebraic expression is x-16.

Answer:

a is 31 b is 38 x is 133. Y is 47

Step-by-step explanation:

A is 31 because the other side is 31. we know the sides are the same because of the markings. B is 38 because the other side is 38 we know that because of the markings which mean its the same. X is 133 Y should be 47 because ALL ANGLES IN A QUADRILATERAL IS EQUAL TO 360. 133+133=266 360-266 is 94. 94 is for both angles so we need to divide by 2 the answer for Y is 47
