For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
If there is 1000 seats, and the students took 45% percent of them, then 450 sixth graders went on the trip
If you mean proof that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, you draw a diagonal then prove that the 2 triangles formed are congruent.
A: Adults
C:children
P: people
A= 2/9 P
C= A+95
P= A+C
= 2/9P + 2/9P+95
= 4/9 P+95, add -4/9P for both sides (same terms, same sides:))
P- 4/9P= 95
5/9P= 95
P= 171 people in the restaurant
Adult= 2/9*171= 38 Adults
Children= 38+95= 133 children
We must follow order of operations rules (PEMDAS) here: exponentiation first, followed by multiplication and division, followed by addition and subtraction.
Thus, -2^2-3(-2)+1 becomes:
-[4] + 6 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 (answer)
