Answer:

Javier rode bike 34 minutes before lunch.


Step-by-step explanation:


Let the number of minutes Javier rode the bike after lunch be = x minutes


Then according to question number of minutes he rode the bike after lunch

= 5x-1


Total number of minutes he rode bike = 41 min

Therefore,

x+5x-1 =41


On solving


6x= 41+1 =42


Divide both side by 6 we get

x= 7


Number of minutes he ride before lunch

= 5(7)-1 = 35-1=34 min

Carlos had 7¾ cups of cheese. After making 5 pizzas, he now only has 2 cups of cheese. How much cheese did Carlos use?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

5 3/4 cups of cheese used for the pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

7 3/4 = 31/4 cups cheese to start

Two cups of cheese remaining.  2 = 8/4 cups

31/4 cups - 8/4 cups = 23/4 cups used for the pizza.

23/4 = 5 3/4 cups of cheese used for the pizza

5x - (x + 3)= 1/3 (9x + 18) - 5
telo118 [61]
1/3(9x) =3x
1/3(18) =6

3x+6-5

Then you do
-(x)=-x
-(3)=-3

5x-x-3 = 4x-3

4x-3=3x+6-5
4x-3=3x+1

x=4

Question 8<br> Calculate the difference (4x2 + x - 5) – (5x2 - 1).
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x2 + x - 5) - (5x2 - 1)

According to the order of operations, parenthesis come first so we will solve what is in the parenthesis first.

Then we do the multiplication because it comes before addition and subtraction.

4x2 = 8

Now we have 8 + x - 5

Combine like terms and 8-5=3 so we have 3 + x

Now for the second one.

5x2=10

10-1=9

Subtracting this from the first expression we have:

3+x-9 =

x - 6

Use slope to determine if the following lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The lines are parallel, with the same slope of 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that if slopes are the same, then the lines are parallel. If the slopes are opposite reciprocals, they are perpendicular. If they are neither of those cases, then they would be neither.

1) Since y = 5x + 1 is already in slope-intercept format (y = mx + b, in which m represents the slope) we know that 5 is the slope of that equation.

2) To find the slope of -5x + y = 6, let's just convert it to the slope-intercept format by isolating y on the left side like so:

-5x + y = 6 \\y = 5x + 6

(All you need to do is move -5x to the right side of the equation.) So, by looking at y = 5x + 6, we can do the same thing we did from step 1 and find that the slope is 5.

3) Since both of the equations' slopes are 5, they share the same slope - therefore, they are parallel.

Hope this helps! Please do not hesitate to ask any questions.
