Answer:

4) smaller number is 9, larger number is 12

13) 38.45=5m+8.5

m=5.99

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=21      the sum of two numbers is 21

x-3=.5y  the smaller number is 3 more than half the larger number

multiply both sides by 2 and you get 2x-6=y

plug that equation into the first equation and you get x+2x-6=21

simplifying you get 3x-6=21 add 6 to  both sides and you get 3x=27

x=9 so the smaller number is 9 then you plug that back into the first equation and get y=12


let m be the cost of 1 movie and c be the cost of the cd

38.45=5m+c

38.45=5m+8.5 this is the equation you use

subtract 8.5 from both sides and you get 29.95=5m

divide both sides by 5

5.99=m the answer

The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 3x−7. The perimeter of the triangle is 77. Find x.
irinina [24]
Answer: x=13


Step 1: Define isosceles triangle

In an isosceles triangle, two sides and angles are equal. The equal sides will be the legs.

Step 2: Write an equation

To write an equation we must first consider the information discussed in step 1. Since we know that the legs will be equal, we will add that to the equation twice. The base and legs will be on one side of the equation, and the perimeter will be on the other. Now we can write the equation!

x+3x-7+3x-7=77

Step 3: Combine like terms

Like terms are terms that share the same variable, or lack of. Let’s add/subtract these now.

x+3x-7+3x-7=77
7x-14=77

Step 4: Solve for x

Let’s do the last part of the equation and solve for x, our final answer.

*Rewrite equation*
7x-14=77
*Add 14 to both sides*
7x=91
*Divide 7 on both sides*
x=13

This is your answer. Hope this helps! Comment below for more questions.

iragen [17]

Answer: 25/676

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of possible outcomes = 26

In other to win, one must draw must be either (A, E, I, O or U)

Therefore required drws to win = 5

First draw:

P(win) = Total required outcome / Total possible outcome

P(win) = 5/26

Second draw:

P(win) = Total required outcome / Total possible outcome

P(win) = 5/26

Therefore,

P(winning twice) = (5/26) × (5/26) = 25/676

What is the answer 0,12km² a m² show work
seraphim [82]

Answer:

120 000 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I ASSUME you're being asked to convert from km^2 to m^2.

For this you need to identify the conversion rate, which is 1 000 000 m^2 / 1 km ^2. Multiply by the thing you're converting from and cancel the units.

(1 000 000 m^2 / 1 km ^2) x 0,12 km^2 = 120 000 m^2 (the km^2 cancels out, leaving you only with your target unit of m^2)
