We can use elimination for these set of systems.
First, we need to set up our variables.
Belts=b
Hats=h
Now, the situation is 6 belts and 8 hats for $140. The situation after is 9 belts and 6 hats for $132.
Let’s set up our system of equations.
6b+8h=140
9b+6h=132
We need to eliminate a variable. Since b has coefficients of 6 and 9, we can easily eliminate b by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom by -2.
18b+24h=420
-18b-12h=-264
Now let’s add.
12h=156
Let’s divide to get h by itself.
156/12=13=h
So a hat costs $13. We need to put in 13 for one of the equations so we can find the cost of a belt.
9b+6(13)=132
9b+78=132
We need b by itself.
9b=54
54/9=6
Belts are $6
We can also use the first equation to check our answers.
6(6)+8(13)
36+104
140.
So, the price of a belt is $6 while the price of a hat is $13.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the graph is a plot of Sean's distance from home as he drives to work, works 8 hours, then drives home with a 2-hour stop along the way. It also appears that t is measured in hours after midnight.
The graph shows Sean's distance from home between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. (t=17) is 20 km. Based on our assumptions, ...
Sean's workplace is located 20 km from his home.
__
Speed is the change in distance divided by the change in time. Between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Sean's position changes by 20 km. His speed is then ...
(20 km)/(1 h) = 20 km/h
Sean's speed driving to work was 20 km/h.
__
Between 5 p.m. (t=17) and 7 p.m. (t=19), Sean's position changes from 20 km to 10 km from home. That change took 2 hours, so his speed was ...
(10 km)/(2 h) = 5 km/h
Sean's speed between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. was 5 km/h.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The units of speed (kilometers per hour) tell you it is computed by dividing kilometers by hours. ("Per" in this context means "divided by".)
While the slope of the line on the graph between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. is negative, the speed is positive. The negative sign means Sean's speed is not away from home, but is toward home. When the direction (toward, away) is included, the result is a vector called "velocity." Speed is just the magnitude of the velocity vector. It ignores direction.
3a+11=7a-13
move 7a to the other side
sign changes from +7a to -7a
3a-7a+11= 7a-7a-13( combine like terms)
3a-7a+11= -13
-4a+11= -13
move 11 to the other side
sign changes from +11 to -11
-4a+11-11= -13-11
-4a= -13-11
-4a= -24
divide both sides by -4 to get a by itself
-4a/-4= -24/-4
Answer: a= 6
Answer:
1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
the probability of your first pick was 1/5, if not retured=ned, the probability of you getting an even number next will then be 2/4. (1/5)(2/4)=1/10
