Answer:

AB=29; BC=27

Step-by-step explanation:

So they told us AB=4x+9 and that BC=5x+2, and AC=56 , now to help with the question you can draw this information on a number line. Now on a number you can see that basically AC=AB+BC.

So you would write it as such,,

4x+9+5x+2=56

Combine like terms

9x+11=56

Now you have to isolate the x by itself but first get rid of the 11.

9x+11-11=56-11

You would get

9x=45

Here you can divide 9 by both sides to isolate x.

9x/9=45/9

{x=5}

Now to find the value for both substitue x in the equations for both

1. AB=4x+9 where x is 5

4(5)+9 =AB

20+9 =AB

29=AB

You would do the same with BC

2. BC= 5x+2 where x is 5

5(5)+2= BC

25+2= BC

27=BC

If you want to check your answers you can just substitute x for 5 in the first equation we did where AC=AB+BC

Which expression is equivalent to 8x-2x+x+x<br><br> a. 4x<br> b. 8x<br> c. 6x-2x<br> d. 10x-2y
Deffense [45]
B - 8x

To find this, combine like terms.

8x - 2x is 6x, then add the two x's on the side to bring it back to 8x.

Hope this helps!

A tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rat 1/4 gallon per minute. Write and expression to determine the number of
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The expression 35 - m is used to determine the number of gallons left in the tank after m minutes.Solution:Given that a tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of gallon per minute. Let "m" represent the number of minutes spent Number of gallons left in the tank = initial amount of water present – leaked amount of water

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – number of minutes spent  rate of leakage.

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – m minutes  1 gallons per minute Hence, the required expression is 35 – m

Eliminate the parameter.<br><br><br>x = 5t, y = t + 8 (2 points)
maxonik [38]

Answer: y = \frac{1}{5}x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

       This is asking us to remove the parameter. In other words, we want an equation with only the relation between x and y, so we need to remove the t. There are a few ways to do this, but I am going to set one equation equal to t and then plug it into the next one.

     Given:

x = 5t

    Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

t = \frac{1}{5}x

     -

    Given:

y = t + 8

    Plug in:

y = (\frac{1}{5}x) + 8

    Answer:

y = \frac{1}{5}x + 8
