40 new accounts for: 100 customer calls
10,000 new accounts for: x customer calls.
----------------------------------------------------------------
40 : 10,000 = 100 : x
x = (100 · 10,000 ) : 40 = 25,000
Answer: 25,000 customer calls were made.
The Perimeter is 15 inches <span />
The Answer is b: x = 18, y = -20
Proof:
Solve the following system:
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 1)
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 2)
Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 2)
Subtract 4/7 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y/7 = (-20)/7 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by 7:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)
Subtract 5 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{7 x+0 y = 126 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 7:
{x+0 y = 18 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = 18, y = -20
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-4=16
5x-4+4=16+4 add 4 to each side
5x=20 simplify
5x/5=20/5 divide each side by 5
x=4 simplify
Answer: " y = 30° " .
_____________________________________
<u>Note</u>: The sum total of the measure of all angles lying on a straight
line is 180°.
So; x + y + z = 180 .
Given: x = 2y ;
z = 3y ;
__________________
Find the value of: " y " ;
_______________________
Since: x + y + z = 180 ;
Substitute: "2y" for "x" ;
and: "3y" for "z" ;
_______________________
2y + y + 3y = 180 ;
6y = 180 ;
______________________
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "6" ; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" ;
___________________________
6y/ 6 = 180 / 6 ;
y = 30 ;
____________________________
Let us check our work;
____________________________
2y + y + 3y = 180 ;
Substitute our solved value: "30" ; for "y" ; in the equation; to see if the equation holds true:
____________________________
2(30) + 30 + 3(30) =? 180 ?
____________________________
60 + 30 + 90 = ? 180 ?
____________________________
90 + 90 = ? 180 ? Yes!
