Answer: First half was 24 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time taken to finish the second half be y.
Since the student used 2/3 of the second half time to finish the first half, first half = 2/3 × y = 2y/3
The entire exam is an hour which equals 60 minutes
First half + Second half = 60minutes
Note that first half is denoted as 2y/3 and second half is denoted by y.
2y/3 + y = 60
5y/3 = 60
Cross multiply
5y = 60 × 3
5y = 180
y = 180/5
y = 36
Second half took 36 minutes
Since first half is 2y/3, it will be:
(2×36) / 3
= 72/3
= 24minutes
First half took 24 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(-x -3y) = 3( x +3y) = 3x+9y
The answer is 11, because 165 divided by 15 is 11 :)
Answer:
y=2x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-1)=2(x-3)
y+1=2x-6
y=2x-6-1
y=2x-7
