You have 2 equations that are both equal to y. If they are both equal to y, then by the transitive property of equality, they are equal to each other (if a = b, and b = c, then a = c).
5x - 17 = x + 3 and
4x = 20 and x = 5. Now sub in that x value of 5 to solve for y:
y = 5 + 3 and y = 8. So the ordered pair is (5, 8)
Answer: 5.5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
30=5/4 ×(-20) + 10t
30 =-25 +10t
10t=55
t=5.5seconds
The cord will first touch the corner of the building after 5.5secs
Answer:
if she got 4 questions wrong it would be 12
her score if she got x questions wrong it would be 20-2x
To solve this, you would divide 478 by 18, which equals 26.5555556. Since you can't have half a package of paper, the answer would be 26. Hope this helps!
