However, point slope equations can be awkward to use in some algebraic operations. In such cases, it may be helpful to convert the equation into a different form, the standard form. The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C. In this kind of equation, x and y are variables and A, B, and C are integers.

Solve the system of equations using substitution. Write the solution as an ordered pair.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

(-3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute for y:

x+6 = -2x -3

3x = -9 . . . . . . . add 2x -6 to both sides

x = -3 . . . . . . . . divide by 3

y = (-3) +6 = 3 . . substitute for x in the first equation

The solution is ...

(x, y) = (-3, 3)

Jean can pack 5 cartons in 15 minutes. Which expression can be used to show the number of cartons Jean can pack in x hours? Grou

nadezda [96]

Answer: 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

First we should note that 60 minutes = 1 hour. Therefore, 15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hour

Since Jean can pack 5 cartons in 1/4 hours, the number of carton that he can pack in one hour will be:

= 5 ÷ 1/4

= 5 × 4

= 20 cartons.

Therefore, to get the number of cartons that Jean can pack in x hours, we will multiply 20 by x. This will be:

= 20 × x

= 20x

A motor club has estimated that a 325 mile car trip will take 6 1/2 hours. What is the club assuming to be the average speed mil

In-s [12.5K]

<u>Answer: </u>

The average speed that the club is assuming is 50 miles per hour

<u>Solution: </u>

We know that Distance = Speed × Time.

Here it is given that distance is 325 miles and the time to cover 325 miles is $6_{2}^{1}$ hours which is equal to $\frac{13}{2}$ hours.

Now to find the average speed mile per hour we use the formula

$\begin{aligned} \text { Speed } &=\frac{\text { Distance }}{\text { time }} \\ &=\frac{325}{\frac{13}{2}} \\ &=\frac{325 \times 2}{13} \end{aligned}$

By cancelling 325 by 13 we get 25

= 25 × 2

= 50 miles per hour

Thus the average speed that the club is assuming is 50 miles per hour.
