Answer:

64/7 i think

Step-by-step explanation:

whole trip ---- x km


day1 , hiked 1/8 of train, leaving (7/8)x

day 2 , hiked 4/7 of (7/8)x leaving

(3/7)(7/8)x or (3/8)x to be hiked

day3 :

(1/3)(3/8)x + 8 = x

x/8 + 8 = x

times 8

x + 64 = 8x

7x = 64


the trail is 64/7 km


check:

day 1 they hiked (1/8)(64/7)

leaving (7/8)(64/7) = 8 km

day2, hiked 4/7 of remaining, leaving

(3/7)(8) or 24/7 km

day 3

(1/3)(24/7) + 8

= 64/7

yeahhh!

Find the area of the composite shape below.<br><br> a 66.8<br> b 91.92<br> c 101.12<br> d 101.6
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

66.24 (This answer does not match to any of the options...)

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape can be divided into 2 different shapes. A triangle and a rectangle.

Area of a Triangle = \frac{1}{2} × base × height

= \frac{1}{2} × 8.8 × 7.8

= 34.32

Area of a Rectangle = Length × Width

= (19.2 - 7.8) × (8.8 - (3+3))

= 11.4 × 2.8

= 31.92

Total area = 34.32 + 31.92 = 66.24

Y=2x−1
lord [1]

Answer:

(1,1) is a solution of the system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the system.

y = 2x - 1

5x - 4y = 1

In the first equation, y is already separated as a function of x. So we replace in the second equation;

5x - 4(2x - 1) = 1

5x - 8x + 4 = 1

4 - 1 = 8x - 5x

x = 1

y = 2x - 1 = 2(1) - 1 = 1

(1,1) is a solution of the system.
