First, distribute -2 into the parentheses which gives you y+4=-2x+2. Subtract 4 to both sides and you get y=-2x-2. This would be the slope-intercept form of the original equation.
Answer:
Part 1) Helen's age is 32 years old and Jane's age is 24 years old
Part 2) 13 twenty-dollar bills
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Helen is 8 years older than Jane. Twenty years ago Helen was three times as old as Jane. How old is each now and what is the equation?
Let
x----> Helen's age
y---> Jane's age
we know that
x=y+8 ----> equation A
(x-20)=3(y-20) -----> equation B
substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y
(y+8-20)=3(y-20)
y-12=3y-60
3y-y=60-12
2y=48
y=24 years
Find the value of x
x=y+8
x=24+8=32 years
Part 2)
Let
x-----> the number of five-dollar bills
y----> the number of twenty-dollar bills
we know that
5x+20y=305 -----> equation A
y=x+4 ------> x=y-4 ------> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
5(y-4)+20y=305
5y-20+20y=305
25y=325
y=13 twenty-dollar bills
Find the value of x
x=y-4
x=13-4=9 five-dollar bills
Answer:
200 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1 cm = 50 miles
4 x 1 = 4 x 50 = 200
I also suggest using an app called photomath. It takes you through the steps of solving the equations and gives you the answer as well.
Answer:
width = 18 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)
then:
90 = 2(27+w)
90/2 = 27+w
w = width
45 = 27+w
45 - 27 = w
18 = w
Check:
90 = 2(27+18)
90 =2*45 =
