Evaluate the algebraic expression for the given values of x = 3 and y = 4. Tx - 2y - 1 = I

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

7 or -9, dependent on if 2y is or is not negative

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2y is NOT negative

2(4)-1=i

8-1=i

i=7

If 2y IS negative

-2(4)-1=i

-8-1=i

i=-9

Emily has 8 coins in her purse totaling 50 cents. The only kinds of coins she has are nickels and dimes. How many nickels does E

makvit [3.9K]

5x + 10y = 50
x + y = 8

x = 8 - y
5*(8-y) + 10y = 50
40 - 5y + 10y = 50
10y - 5y = 50 - 40
5y = 10
y = 2

x + y = 8
x + 2 = 8
x = 8 - 2
x = 6

She has 6 nickels and 2 dimes

Can u guys help me with this problem

Answer:

$-0.7$ or $-\frac{7}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-0.75-(-\frac{2}{5})+0.4+(-\frac{3}{4})$

The opposite of $-\frac{2}{5}$ is $\frac{2}{5}$

$-0.75 + \frac{2}{5} +0.4 - \frac{3}{4}$

Convert decimal number −0.75 to fraction $-\frac{75}{100}$ .

Reduce the fraction $-\frac{75}{100}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 25.

$-\frac{3}{4} + \frac{2}{5}+0.4-\frac{3}{4}$

Least common multiple of 4 and 5 is 20. Convert $-\frac{3}{4}$ and $\frac{2}{5}$ to fractions with denominator 20.

$-\frac{15}{20}+ \frac{8}{20} +0.4 - \frac{3}{4}$

Since $-\frac{15}{20}$ and $\frac{8}{20}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$\frac{-15 +8}{20} +0.4-\frac{3}{4}$

Add -15 and 8 to get -7

$-\frac{7}{20}+0.4-\frac{3}{4}$

Convert decimal number 0.4 to fraction $\frac{4}{10}$ . Reduce the fraction $\frac{4}{10}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$-\frac{7}{20}+\frac{2}{5}-\frac{3}{4}$

Least common multiple of 20 and 5 is 20. Convert $-\frac{7}{20}$ and $\frac{2}{5}$ to fractions with denominator 20.

$-\frac{7}{20}+\frac{8}{20}-\frac{3}{4}$

Since $-\frac{7}{20}$ and $\frac{8}{20}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$20-7+8-\frac{3}{4}$

Add -7 and 8 to get 1.

$\frac{1}{20}-\frac{3}{4}$

Least common multiple of 20 and 4 is 20. Convert $\frac{1}{20}$ and $\frac{3}{4}$ to fractions with denominator 20.

$\frac{1}{20}-\frac{15}{20}$

Since $\frac{1}{20}$ and $\frac{15}{20}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$\frac{1}{20}-15$

Subtract 15 from 1 to get -14.

$20-14$

Reduce the fraction $-\frac{14}{20}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$-\frac{7}{10}$ or $-0.7$

Hope this helps! Brainliest would be much appreciated! Have a great day! :)

Describe how you could draw a diagram for a problem about finding the total length for two strings, 15 inches long and 7 inches

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Two strings are 15 inches and 7 inches long.

You could draw a diagram that has two rulers (that are longer than 12 inches).

Draw a piece of string that is exactly 15 inches on one ruler.
Draw another piece of string on the other ruler at exactly 7 inches.

Then you can find the total length of the two strings by adding 15 and 7 inches.
15 + 7 = 22

The total length of both the strings is 22 inches. You can draw a ruler and a piece of string on it at 22 inches.
