Write an expression for the sequence of operations described below.

Lemur [1.5K]

This might look hard at first, but if you break it down into parts, it will be much easier. With that said, start with what you know. You see that the word problem says "the difference of y and 9", which means that you have to stubtract them. So, part of the equation is going to be y - 9. Now to look at the rest of the word problem. It says to divide by 3, so now you have to take what you have so far and divide that by 3. This means that you are going to have to divide the y - 9 by 3.

Your answer should be:
y - 9 / 3

Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2. Two times the first number increased by three times the se

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

First number is -2.5

Second number 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2.

To represent this statement, 4x -3y =2

Two times the first number increased by three times the second is 10.

To represent thsi statement, 2x+ 3y = 10

4x - 3y = 2

2x + 3y =10

4x - 2x = 2x

2x = -5

x= -2.5

The first number is -2.5

By using Substitution

2x + 3y = 10

2(-2.5) + 3y = 10

-5 + 3y = 10

3y = 10 +5

3y =15

y = 5

The second number is 5

....To check my answer

-5 + 15 = 10

the two lines represent the amount of water, over time, in two tanks that are the same size. Which container is filling more qui

uranmaximum [27]

The missing figure is attached down

Answer:

Container A is filling more quickly

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let us explain the linear relation</em>

The linear equation is y = m x + b, where

m is the slope of the line which represents the rate of change (change in y/change in x)
b is the y-intercept which means the initial amount of y (at x = 0)

<em>If a line represents the amount of water over time, then it represents the rate of filling of the water</em>

∵ There are two containers A and B that have the same size

∵ The two lines represent the amount of water over time in

containers A and B

∴ The slopes of the lines represent the rat of water in the tanks

→ That means the greater slope represents the greater rate

∵ The greater the slope, the steeper the line

∴ The container that represented by the steeper the line is filling quickly

→ The line represents container A is steeper more than the line

represents container B

∴ Container A is filling more quickly
