Assuming this is a system of equations, here is how to find x.

2x + 3y = 45
x + y = 10

Multiply x + y = 10 by 2 so you are able to use the elimination method.

2x + 3y = 45
2x + 2y = 20

Subtract.

y = 25

Now that we've found y, we can plug it in to find x.

x + 25 = 10

Subtract 25 from both sides.

x = -15

$x = \frac{ - b \pm \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} \\ \\ x = \frac{8 \pm \sqrt{ {8}^{2} - 4 \times 2 \times 5 } }{2 \times 2}$

$x = \frac{8 \pm \sqrt{24} }{4} \\ \\ x = \frac{8 \pm2 \sqrt{6} }{4}$

$x = 2 \pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2} \\ \\ x = 2 \pm \sqrt{1.5} \\ \\ x = 2 + \sqrt{1.5} \: \: and \: \: \: 2 - \sqrt{1.5}$

A shipment containing 5 recorders and 4 harmonicas cost $62. A second shipment containing 10 recorders and 3 harmonicas cost $84

My name is Ann [436]

For the first shipment, 5r+4h=62.
For the second shipment, 10r+3h=84.
pick either equation and solve for r, them plug this back into the other equation and solve for h, you should then be able to find the price per harmonica and per recorder. Comment if you need more help.

The average time a human being can hold their breath underwater is 1 minute. A hippo can hold its breath underwater for at least

stepan [7]

Answer:

Average breath hold time by hippo under water ≥ 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Average time by human = 1 minute

Average time by hippo = ≥ 5 times human

Since average human breath hold time = 1 minute

Average breath hold time by hippo = 5 * 1 minute

Average breath hold time by hippo under water ≥ 5 minutes
