-5n + 8 = -7
-5n + 8 - 8 = -7 -8
-5n = -15
-5n/-5 = -15/-5
n = 3
Answer:
1) 2x - y = 26.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution = (18, 10)
2x - y = 26 fits the bill
as 2(18) - 10
= 36 - 10
= 26.
Answer:
72 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
If 6 pounds of meat serves 9 people, divide 6/9. This equals 0.666... aka 2/3. This decimal refers to how much of the meat each person gets. Multiply this decimal by 108 people. You get 72 pounds of meat.
Answer:
360 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 yd = 36 in.
10 yd = 10 * 1 yd = 10 * 36 in. = 360 in.
Remark.
The problem is a bit indistinct. Where exactly are the two edges of the road? I'm going to say that they are the x intercepts, but that may not be true. Certainly it does not have to be true at all.
Graph.
A graph has been made for you. The maximum is marked for you. It is an approximation The actual height can be more accurately found.
Height
y = (-1/200)(x - 16)(x + 16)
y = (-1/200)*(x^2 - 256)
The maximum height for this graph only is when x = 0.Other graphs require completing the square.
y = (-1/200) * (-256)
y = 1.28 exactly. I thought the graph might be rounding the answer. It is not.
