Answer:
i think x = -4, y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 16 - 4y
3x + 4y = 8
3(16 - 4y)+4y = 8
48-12y+4y = 8
48-8y = 8
48-8 = 8y
40 = 8y
5 = y
so
x = 16 - 4y
x = 16 - 4(5)
x = 16 - 20
x = -4
I think its true but i may be wrong
Answer: 3,750 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Route takes him 125 miles each way so in a day he travels:
= 125 + 125
= 250 miles
He made 15 roundtrips so total miles is:
= 15 * 250
= 3,750 miles
Answer:
x=4, MN= 37, LM= 37, y=7.
Step-by-step explanation:
If MP is a perpendicular bisector to LN, then NP and LP are equivalent.
(Solve for y)
2y+2= 16
(Move the +2 to the right side of the equation)
2y= 14
(Divide both sides by 2 to isolate the variable)
y=7
To find x and the measure of MN and LM, solve for x in the following equation:
7x+9 = 11x-7
(Move 7x to the right side of the equation)
9 = 4x-7
(Move -7 to the right side of the equation.)
16= 4x
(Divide both sides by 4 to isolate the variable.)
4= x
Plug x back into both equations to get the measure of MN and ML
MN=7(4)+9
MN= 28+9
MN= 37
LM= 11(4)-7
LM= 44-7
LM= 37
I hope this helps!
Answer:
$66
Step-by-step explanation:
It can be convenient to assign a different variable to the amount of money each spent. We can call the amounts spent by Seedevi, Georgia, and Amy "s", "g", and "a", respectively.
The problem statement tells us ...
s = (1/2)g
s = a +6
s + g + a = 258
__
The problem statement asks for the amount Seedevi spent, so we need to find the value of s. It is convenient to write the other variables in terms of s:
g = 2s
a = s -6
Then the sum is ...
s + (2s) +(s -6) = 258
4s = 264 . . . . . . . . . . . add 6, simplify
s = 66 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4
Seedevi spent $66.
