The answer to the equation would not be 182

224 = x + y can be rewritten as x=224-y

2520 = 12x +8y

substitute top equation into second equation for x

2520 = 12(224-y) + 8y

2520 = 2688-12y+8y

2520 =2688-4y

subtract 2688 from both sides

-168 = -4y

dive both sides by -4

y = -168/-4 = 42

x = 224-42 = 182

182 x 12 = 2184, 42 x 8 =336, 2184 + 336 = 2520

and 182 + 42 = 244

 since y was the 18 and younger y = 42

If speed varies inversely as the time it takes to drive and Kris takes 5 hours driving at 55 mph, what speed will Martin need to
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

55mph

None of the option is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v be the speed and t as the time taken. If speed varies inversely as the time it takes to drive, then v ∝ 1/t.

v = k/t where k is the constant of proportionality.

IF it takes Kris 5 hours when driving at 55 mph, then v = 55mph when t = 5 hours.

Substituting this values into the formula above;

55 = k/5

k = 55*5

k = 275mp/hr²

To calculate the speed it will Martin to  drive for 5 hours, we will substitute k = 275 and t = 5 into the original equation v = k/t

v = 275/5

v = 55 mph

<em>Hence, martin will also need to drive at 55mph to take 5 hours</em>

X^y=y^x and x=2y prove that y=2.
irinina [24]

Answer:

{x}^{y}  =  {y}^{x}  \:  -  -  -  (1)

x = 2y \:  -  -  - (2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

{2y}^{y}  =  {y}^{2y}

Log both sides:

lg(2 {y}^{y} ) = lg(y^{2y} )

y \: lg(2y) = 2y(lg \: y)

y \: lg(2) + y \: lg(y) = 2y \: lg(y)

y \: lg(2) = 2y \: lg(y) - y \: lg(y)

y \: lg(2) = y \: lg(y)

Divide by y on both sides:

lg(2) = lg(y)

{10}^{lg(2)}  =  {10}^{lg(y)}

2= y

y= 2 (proved)

Explanation:

• step 5: lg(m)^n= nlg(m)

• Step 6: lg(mn)= lg(m) +lg(n)
