Multiply 1/4 (4r -12) = r-2
r-3 = r-2
Subtract r from each side
-3= -2 this equation has no solution
Answer:
15.9
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 6^2 = 17^2
x squared + 36 = 289
-36 -36
x squared = 253
= 253
x = 15.9
We need to write system of equations for this problem. Reading text we write 1 equation by 1.
first lets name our variables
x - Kiana cards
y - Gary cards
z - Monty cards
m - Willa cards
x = y-3 which we can write as y = x+3
z = x + 7
m = 2z
x + y + z + m = 74
I think easiest way to solve this is to express all variables in last equation and solve for x.
x + x+3 + x + 7+ 2x + 14= 74
5x = 50
x = 10
now we just calculate cards given to each friend
y = 13
z = 17
m = 34
The question is incomplete ; we could calculate the least number of cars he can still wash for the week expressed in inequality form.
Answer:
x > 13 ; 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Anticipated work hour for entire week = 60.2 hours
Hours worked = 27.7 hours
Rate of car wash = 2.5 per hour
Hours left to work for the week :
60.2 - 27.7 = 32.5
Hours left / unit rate of car wash
32.5 / 2.5
= 13
Hours worked +( hours left * unit rate) > anticipated hours
27.7 + 2.5x < 60.2
2.5x > 60.2 - 27.7
2.5x > 32.5
x > 32.5 / 2.5
x > 13
Hence ; Sam could still wash over 13 cars this week
