Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the value of these two numbers are 1/2 and 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
x+y < 2 ---- (1)
y - x > 1 ---- (2)
From equation (2), let y > 1 + x then substitute it into equation (1)
x + 1 + x < 2
2x + 1 < 2
2x < 2 - 1
2x < 1
x < 1/2
From equation (2), replace the value of x to be 1/2
y - 1/2 > 1
y > 1 + 1/2
y > 3/2
We use the given data above to calculate the volume of gasoline that is being burned per minute by commercial airplanes.
Amount burned of 1 commercial airplane = <span>3.9 × 10³ ml of gasoline per second
Number of airplanes = </span><span>5.1 × 10³ airplanes
We calculate as follows:
</span> 3.9 × 10³ ml of gasoline per second / 1 airplane (5.1 × 10³ airplanes)(60 second / 1 min ) = <span>1.2 x 10^9 mL / min</span>
Answer:
10 SENIORS
Step-by-step explanation:
x=# of seniors
y=# of juniors
x+y=23, x=2y-7
- plug the value of x in the second equation into the first
- (2y-7)+y=23
- Remove parentheses
- 2y-7+y=23
- Combine like terms
- 3y-7=23
- Add 7 to BOTH sides
- 3y=30
- divide BOTH sides by 3
- 3y/3=30/3
- y=10
- There are 10 juniors in the class
- FINAL STEPS
- Plug y (which is 10) into the first equation
- x+y=23
- x+10=23
- subtract 10 from BOTH sides
- x=13
- Since X equals the number of seniors, there are 10 seniors in the class
