A publisher needs to send many books to a local book retailer and will send the books in a combination of small and large boxes.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Answer:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

.

Where xx is the number of small boxes sent and yy is the number of large boxes sent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be xx the number of small boxes sent and yy the number of large boxes sent.

Since each small box can hold 20 books (20x20x ), each large box can hold 30 books (30y30y )and altogether can hold a total of 280 books, we can write the following equation to represent this:

20x+30y=28020x+30y=280

According to the information provided in the exercise, there were 4 times as many large boxes sent as small boxes. This can be represented with this equation:

y=4xy=4x

Therefore, the system of equation that be used to determine the number of small boxes sent and the number of large boxes sent, is:

\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{

y=4x

20x+30y=280

The table shows the cost of renting ski equipment at a ski lodge. Write a linear function f for the sequence. Then graph the fun
Bingel [31]

Answer:

<u>y=5x+7</u>

<u>or</u>

<u>f(x)=5x+7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = 5

Y-intercept (b) = 7

Using the equation y=mx+b, you can find m and b to make y=5x+7.

Steps:

(1, 12) (2, 17)                          formula: y2-y1 / x2-x1 = m

17-12= 5

 2-1 = 1

5/1=5

m=5

12=5(1)+b

12=5+b

7=b

17=5(2)+b

17=10+b

7=b

<u>Answer: y=5x+7</u>

<u>or</u>

<u>f(x)=5x+7</u>

Complete the statement of congruence for the triangles.
Hoochie [10]

If you are proving a congruence of triangles then you need to match the corresponding parts to the triangle you are proving congruent.

BAC would then be congruent to MJR because of the corresponding angles

B is the same angle as M

A is the same angle as J

C is the same angle as R
