Answer:

120 baseball cards

Step-by-step explanation:

15 × 2 = 30

30 + 10 = 40

40 ÷ 1/3 = 40 × 3/1 = 120

Therefore there were 120 cards in the back

<em>I just did the inverse of each process starting from the last step and ending at the first</em>

A triangle has side lengths of (x-6), (x+2) and (x-9). Find the perimeter of the triangle
Setler [38]

Answer:

3x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is just the distance around the triangle. We have all three sides, so we can just add them together to get the total distance.

(x-6) + (x+2) + (x-9)

Group:

x + x + x - 6 + 2 - 9

3x - 13

( simultaneous equations)
daser333 [38]

Answer:

See method below.

Step-by-step explanation:

m/n + n/3 = 2

2/m + n = 4    

First  eliminate the fractions by multiplying the first equation by 3n:-

3m + n^2 = 6n...........(1)

and the second equation by m:-

2 + mn = 4m..............(2)

Now we solve using substitution:-

From equation  (2):-

4m - mn = 2

m = 2 / (4 - n)

Now substitute for m in equation (1):-

6/ (4 - n) + n^2 = 6n

6 + n^2(4 - n) = 6n(4 - n)

6 + 4n^2 - n^3 = 24n - 6n^2

n^3 - 10n^2 + 24n - 6 = 0

This will not factor so we could solve this using graphical software.

To find the values of the variable m we substitute the found values of n into one of the original equations and solve for m.
