Answer:

The number of pounds collected by Steve is 39-j

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

j----> the number of pounds collected by Joy

s ---> the number of pounds collected by Steve

we know that

j+s=39

Solve for s

That means-----> Isolate the variable s

Subtract j both sides

s=39-j

Lynna [10]

Answer:

m , m

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary

so

m ----> equation A

mS=180\° -----> equation B

we have

m>S=70\°

substitute in the equation B and solve for m<R

m

m

m -----> substitute in equation A

Find S5 for the sequence 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73.
hoa [83]
 have an arithmetic sequence here....to find the common difference, subtract the first term from the second term. 13 - 3 = 10...so basically, ur adding 10 to each number to get to the next number.

before we find s5, we r going to find a5...because we need a5 to use in the sum formula.....a5 is the fifth term, and it is 43

sn = (n (a1 + a5) / 2
s5 = (5 (3 + 43) / 2
s5 = (5 (46)) / 2
s5 = 230/2
s5 = 115 <===

or, for this particular problem, s5 is the sum of the first 5 terms.
3 + 13 + 23 + 33 + 43 = 115.....u can do it this way for s5...but if u were asked to find s20, I suggest using the formula.

Given vectors: p=2i-j, q=-i+j<br> find: 1. p+q<br> 2.p-q<br> 3. 2p-3q
otez555 [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

p + q

= 2i - j + i + j ← collect like terms

= 3i

(2)

p - q

= 2i - j - (i + j) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= 2i - j - i - j ← collect like terms

= i - 2j

(3)

2p - 3q

= 2(2i - j) - 3(i + j) ← distribute parenthesis

= 4i - 2j - 3i - 3j ← collect like terms

= i - 5j
