X + y = 2
Substitute x + 8 into y
x + x + 8 = 2
2x + 8 =2
(Subtract 8 from both sides)
2x = -6
(Divide both sides by 2)
x = -3
Subsitute x = -3 into either equation to find y
x + y = 2
-3 + y = 2
(Add 3 to both sides)
y = 2 + 3
y = 5
Or y can be solved for using:
y = x + 8
y = -3 + 8
y = 5
Convention in algebra is that we use letters such as a, b, c, etc., for parameters and letters such as x, y z, and so on, for variables.
Thus the parameters here are a, b and k. k is the constant of proportionality.
Answer: 50 km
Step-by-step explanation: So the map has a scale of 1 cm: 20 km. Next, you look at how far they are apart and see if the scale and the distance on the map are the same measurement. In this case, they are both centimeters so they stay the same. Then, all you do is multiple the real size, 20 km, by
2.5
/1
. Then, 20 x 2.5=50. So the answer is 50 km
Answer: 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Previous baby's weight = 18 pounds
New baby's weight = 24 pounds.
Increase in weight = New weight -Previews weight
=24 pounds - 18 pounds =6 pounds
Percentage increase in baby's weight =

Hence, the percentage increase in baby's weight = 25%
