Jamie and Owen joined a monthly walking challenge at their youth center. Jamie has already walked 120 minutes and plans to walk

20 minutes per day. Owen plans to walk 30 minutes per day. Let x represent the number of days and y represent the total number of minutes walked during the challenge. Which system of equations can be used to find the number of days it will take for Owen and Jamie to have walked the same number of minutes?
A) y= 20x + 120
y= 30x

B) y= 20x
y= 30x + 120

C) y= 120x + 20
y= 30x

D) y= 120x
y= 30x + 20

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Jamie already walked 120 minutes.

Jamie plans to walk 20 minutes per day.

Owen plans to walk  30 minutes per day.

If x represent the number of days and y represent the number of minutes walked.

Number of minutes Jamie walked in x days = 20x

Total minute walked by Jamie in x days , y = 20x + 120

Number of minutes Owen walked in x days = 30x

Total Number of minutes walked by Owen in x days , y = 30x

Therefore, Option A is correct.

Solve the following system of equations , and find the ordered pair. X =-y-6 and -7x +6y=-10
Blababa [14]

Given:

There are given the equation:

\begin{gathered} x=-y-6...(1) \\ -7x+6y=-10...(2) \end{gathered}

Explanation:

From the equation (1):

Put the value of x into the equation (2):

So,

From the equation (2):

\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} -7x+6y=-10 \end{equation*} \\ -7(-y-6)+6y=-10 \\ 7y+42+6y=-10 \\ 13y=-10-42 \\ 13y=-52 \\ y=-4 \end{gathered}

Now,

Put the value of y into the equation (1):

So,

From the first equation:

\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} x=-y-6 \end{equation*} \\ x=-(-4)-6 \\ x=4-6 \\ x=-2 \end{gathered}

Final answer:

Hence, the ordered pair of the solution is shown below:

(-2,-4)

Which information is necessary to solve this story problem? Sam had a total of 14 people at his skating party. The party lasted
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

For the problem we have:

Sam had 14 people at the party.

The party lasted for 4 hours.

He paid $2 for each person's skate rental and 3 for each person's entry ticket.

Suppose we want to know how much Sam spent on the party.

But we do not know if the $2 of the skate rental are per hour or per two hours, or in total, for example, if the amount is per hour, then the total amount for each skate is $2*4 = $8, so in the case that the rental depends on the time, we can not solve this problem because we do not have enough information.

If the $2 are fixed (do not depend on the time that the party lasted) then the fact that the party lasted for 4 hours does not matter.

We can calculate as 14 persons* ($2 + $3) each = 14*$5 = $70, then you can see that in this case the 4 hours data is not necessary

Carl wants to plant a garden that is 1 1/2 yards long and has an area of 3 1/2 yd.² how wide should the Garden be
lesya692 [45]
L= length= 1 1/2 yards
A= area= 3 1/2 yards^2
w= width

Area= length * width
plug in numbers you know
3 1/2= (1 1/2)(w)
convert to improper fractions
(3*2+1)/2= ((1*2+1)/2)(w)
7/2= 3/2w
divide both sides by 3/2
7/2 ÷ 3/2= w
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 3/2
7/2 * 2/3= w
(7*2)/(2*3)= w
14/6= w
reduce by 2
7/3= width as improper fraction
OR
2 1/3= width as mixed fraction

ANSWER: The width should be 2 1/3 yards wide (or 7/3 yards wide).

Hope this helps! :)

Simplify<br><br> 14 +{ -2 + 3 [ 1 +3 ( -6 -2 ) ] }
gregori [183]
ANSWER: -57
14+{−2+3[1+3(−6−2)]}
= 14+{−2+3[1+3(-8)]}
= 14+{−2+3[1+(-24)]}
= 14+{−2+3[1-24]}
= 14+{−2+3[-23]}
= 14+{−2+[-69]}
= 14+{−2-69}
= 14+(-71)
= 14 - 71
= -57
