Answer:

20,9

Step-by-step explanation:

this is how I did=x=1st, y=2nd; x=4y-16 and x+y=29; thus 4y-16+y=29; 5y-16=29; 5y=45; y=45/5=9, once you know y=9, put in equation, 4y-16=×, (4*9)-16=x, 36-16=x, 20=x

There are 22 events at an indoor track and field meet. The ratio of track and events to field events is 8:3. How many of the eve
Minchanka [31]
16 track and events and 6 events. Since if it is 8:3 that means the total is 11, and 22 is double 11. The ration would double in size. Making 8:3 to 16:6. If you add 16 and 6, you would get 22 in all.

What are the roots of the equation x^2+3x-18=0
belka [17]
First you open 2 parenthesis with x in each one:

(x )(x )=0

Then, you place the sign of the second term (the x term) in the first parenthesis.

(x+ )(x )=0

Next, you multiply the signs of the x term and the sign of the constant (the third term).
Since + × - = -, then you place a -.

(x+ )(x- )=0

You look at the constant (-18) and the second term (3). What two numbers multiplied give you -18 but subtracted (since the signs inside the parenthesis are opposite) give you 3? Those numbers are 6 and 3.
Since the result of the substraction need to be 3, you place the 6 with the + sign and the 3 with the negative sign (if you think of it, 6-3=3 but 3-6 = -3. That's the reason behind placing the numbers)

(x+6)(x-3)=0

Therefore,

x+6=0 or x-3=0

x=-6 or x=3

Your roots are -6 and 3.

Jim began a 226-mile bicycle trip to build up stamina for a triathlete competition. Unfortunately, his bicycle chain broke, so h
Hitman42 [59]

Answer: 5.5hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 226miles

Total time = 7 hours

Let b represent total time spent while walking.

Distance (walking) = 4b

Distance ( riding) = 40(7-b)

Total distance 226 = 4b + 40(7-b)

226 = 4b + 280 - 40b

226 = 280-36b

b = 54/36

b = 1.5hours

Amount of time spent walking = 1.5hours

Amount of time spent riding = 7-1.5 = 5.5hours

Amount of time spent on bicycle = 5.5hours
