Why did both of their names have to start with the same letter
x=jay hours
y=jamie huours
x=10+3y
x=43
so
43=10+3y
minus 10
33=3y
divide 3
11=y
jamies spent 11 hours

56:190
Step-by-step explanation:
That's the ratio?
I'm not sure what the question is asking.
Answer:the perimeter of the regular pentagon is 5x + 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a plane figure is the distance around the plane figure. The pentagon is a plane figure. It has 5 sides. Since it is a regular Pentagon, it means that all the sides are equal.
From the information given, the length of each side of the regular Pentagon is x + 4
The perimeter of the regular Pentagon would be 5 times the length of each side. It becomes
5(x + 4) = 5x + 20
Answer:
(3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to solve this by substitution
We first need to get a variable by itself in one of the two equations (it doesn't matter which variable and the equation you do the work on doesn't matter either)
I'm going to solve for y in the second equation
-4x-4y=4
add 4y and subtract 4 from both sides to get
-4x-4=4y
Divide by 4 to get
-x-1=y
We can plug this value in for y into the first equation and get
4x+5(-x-1)= -8
Solve for x
4x-5x-5= -8
-x-5= -8
-x= -3
x=3
We can plug this value into one of the first two equations and solve for y
4(3)+5y= -8
12+5y= -8
5y= -20
y= -4
Therefore the solution is (3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
Answer:
Option D.
x can take values from 15downwards. It can't be 16 because the expression clearly states that x is less than 16. So x can take value from any number below 16.
