Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
The answer to this equation would be 278.135
Answer:
x= -8
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x-12=8x+12
5x-12=8x+12
5x-8x=12+12
-3x=24
24/-3
x= -8
The vertex is 10
Basically, 10 is the lowest value for any given set of values for x
Answer:
-1, 3, 7, 11
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find term 1. To find this term, we need to replace n with 1 - what is 4(1) - 5? Well, that's just 4 - 5, or -1. So, our first term is -1. Next, we'll find our second term. To do this, we'll replace n with 2. 4(2) = 8, and then 8 - 5 is equal to 3, so our second term is 3. Let's now find the third term by replacing n with the number 3. 4(3) - 5 is equal to 12 - 5, or 7. So, 7 is our third term. Finally, we'll find the fourth term. 4(4) is equal to 16, and 16 - 5 is equal to 11. So, the fourth and final term is equal to 11.
Hopefully that's helpful! :)
