Solve each equation. Check your solution. 7a+10=2a

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

7a + 10 = 2a

subtract 7a from each side

7a-7a+10 = 2a-7a

10 = -5a

divide by -5

10/-5 = -5a/-5

-2 = a

check

7 (-2) +10 = 2(-2)

-14 + 10 = -4

-4 = -4

Car A travels 20 mph faster than Car B. In the same time that Car A travels 252 miles, Car B travels 196 miles. Find their speed

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

A = 70

B = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Car A travels 20 mph faster than Car B.

Assuming the speed of Car B to be x and the speed of Car A to be x+20, we can write:

$\frac{196}{x} =\frac{252}{x+20}$

Taking the reciprocal of both sides to make x the subject:

$196(x+20)=252x$

$196x+3920=252x$

$252x-196x=3920$

$56x=3920$

$x=70$ ---> speed of Car A

Finding the speed of Car B: $x+20 = 70+20=90$

Therefore, the speed of Car A = 70 and the speed of Car B = 90.

Which values of x and y satisfy 2x − y = 7 and 3x − 2y = 5 simultaneously?

photoshop1234 [79]

To solve problems like this you can either graph or solve mathematically. To do the ladder we need to solve for one variable at a time. So lets cancel one variable out.
Multiply equation 1 by 2
This will give 4x-2y=14
Now we can get rid of y by subtracting 2 from 1
This will give x=9
Plug back in to either equation, i will use equation 2
3(9)-2y=5 simplify
-2y=-22 solve
Y=11
