Jan's age is 3 years less than twice trits age. The sum of their ages is 30. Find their ages.

1 answer:

4 0

Alright so let's make Jan's age "J" and Trits' age "T"
Jan's age is 3 years less than twice trits age: 2T-3=J
The sum of their ages is 30: J+T=30
We can plug the first equation into the second:
2T-3+T=30
3T-3=30
3T=33
T=11 So Trits' age is 11, and we can plug 11 for T for either equation
2(11)-3=J
19=J
Jan is 19 and Trit is 11 :)

What is the simultanous equation of 2x+y=–5 3x+2y=–8 equation Using the Substitution method

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: Equation $form:$ $x=-2,y=-1$

$Point$ $form:$ $(-2, -1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=-\frac{3x}{2} -4$

$y=-2x-5$

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Add the equations in order to solve for the first variable. Plug this value into the other equations in order to solve for the remaining variables.

$Solve$ $by$ $Substitution$ ---> $2x+y=-5 3x+2y=-8$

HELP!!!!

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You just need the distance formula here. It's very simple to follow:

$d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }$

which, for us, looks like this:

$d=\sqrt{(13-4)^2+(19-7)^2}$ and

$d=\sqrt{9^2+12^2}$ and

$d=\sqrt{81+144}$ and

$d=\sqrt{225}$ so

d = 15

How do you solve 39 equal to 1 3/10b

elena-s [515]

If 39 = (1 3/10)b, we could simplify this by writing 39 - (13/10)b.

Solve this for b by mult. both terms by (10/13):

(10*39)
----------- = (10/13)(13/10)b. Then b = 30 (answer)
13

Mario made a table with the rules below

Lady_Fox [76]

It will be option A.
x - coordinate is 1. If we multiply 3 with 1, it will be 3. And if we multiply 3 with 3, it will be 9.
y- coordinate is 1. If we add 3 with 1, it will be 4. And adding 3 with 4, we get 7.

<u>Answer:</u>

Hope you could get an idea from here.
