(Note: I am solving the system of equations using the elimination method)

1. Cancel out a variable and add the polynomials
x + y = 35
x - y = 9
2x = 44
2       2
x  = 22

2. Substitute and solve for the other variable
(22) + y = 35
22 + y = 35
-22         -22
y = 13

3. Substitute Ordered Pairs (Optional)
(22) + (13) = 35
35 = 35

22 women and 13 men were at the game.

a pharmacist mixes 5g of a powder with 45cm³ of water to make a prescription medicine. how much powder should she mix with 81cm²
den301095 [7]

Answer:

She should mix 9 g of powder

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can have a ratio for powder to water

we have 5 g of powder mixed with 45 cm^3 of water

So, for every 1 g, we have 5g/45 cm^3

we have 9 cm^3

So let’s relate this to the bigger water mix

Recall from above; we have the mixing as 1 g per 9 cm^2 of water

1g per 9 cm^2

x g per 81 cm^2

81 * 1 = x * 9

9x = 81

x = 81/9

x = 9g

The window in Mr. Rodriguez's attic is in two parts, each shaped like a trapezoid and each with identical dimensions.
MaRussiya [10]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

First, ~multiply~base~and~height.~In~our~case~the~base~is~30~inches~and the~height~is~12~inches.Then,~we 'll~take~16~inches~and~multiply~it~with~12~inches

<u><em>So, it'll be :</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>30~inches × 12~inches =360~inches

16~inches × 12~inches=192~inches

Now,~that~we've~got~ 360 ~and~ 192~ as~ our~ answers ~we ~add~ them ~up..

<u><em>Like this :</em></u>

<u><em /></u>360+192=552<u><em /></u>

Suppose each license plate in a certain state has three letters followed by three digits. The letters and and the digits , , and
exis [7]

Answer:

17576000 different possible license plates

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in the question, repetition is allowed for both the letters and digits.

For the first letter, there are 26  choices to make. For the each of the letters, there are 26 choices for the second letter, and for each of the letters, there are another 26 choices for the third letter.

Therefore, this gives us 26x26x26 = 17576 possible pairs of letters.

For the three numbers, we have ten possibilities for the first digit, ten possibilities for the second digit, and ten possibilities for the third digit.

Therefore, this gives us 10x10x10 =1000 possible numbers.

The combined possibility of the license plates in both three letters and three numbers is 17576 x 1000 = 17576000 different possible license plates.
