Answer:
Michael and Carlos will have the same amount after 7 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the total number of baseball cards that Carlos and Michael need to have to be equal is y, and the amount of time in terms of weeks that it will take for this to be achieved is x.
The following expressions can be derived
For Carlos to achieve y, he will need 85 and an addition of 10 per week (x):
y=85+(10x)..........equation 1
For Michael to achieve y, he will need 120 and an addition of 5 per week (x):
y=120+(5x)..........equation 2
Equating equation 1 and 2 to solve for x
85+10x=120+5x
10x-5x=120-85
5x/5=35/5
x=7
Number of weeks it will take Michael and Carlos to have the same amount=x=7 weeks
First thing to do is to solve each of these for y. The first one is y=-4x-3; the second one is y=4x-21; the third one is y=4x+21; the fourth one is y=-4x+3. From that you can tell the positive slopes are found in the second and third equations. Those are the ones we will test now for the point (3, -9). y=-9 and x=3, so let's fill in accordingly. The second equation filled in is -9=4(3)-21. Does the left side equal the right when we do the math? -9=12-21 and -9=-9. So the second one works. Just for the sake of completion, let's do the same with the third: -9=4(3)+21. Does -9=12+21? Of course it doesn't. Our equation is the second one above, y+9=4(x-3).
Answer:
50 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
x+4x+10=y
y is 60
x+4x+10=60
5x+10=60
5x=50
x=10
or
10*4=40
40+10=50
50+10=60
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanat
Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD
