X+2y=62
3x-2y=116

solving the simultaneous equations by multiplying first equation by 3;
3x+6y=186
3x-y=116

Subtracting equation II from equation I;
7y=70
y=10
 Replacing y in equation I;

x+20=62
x=42

Bigger number is 42 and smaller number is 20.

1. Chris takes 25 minutes to replace one car tyre.
vekshin1

Chris and Jim must replace a <em>total</em> quantity of 17 tyres.

<h3>What is the minimum number of tyres to be replaced?</h3>

In this problem we must use an inequality of the form f(x) ≥ a, where f(x) is the difference between the number of tyres replaced by Jim and the number of tyres replaced by Chris:

(25/20) · x - x ≥ 3

(5/20) · x ≥ 3

x ≥ 12

Then, the <em>minimum</em> number of tyres to be replaced is n = 15 + 12 = 17 tyres.

Solve the following proportion for x. 3/13 = x/5 Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
anastassius [24]

To solve, isolate the x. Cross multiply

3/13(13)(5) = x/5(5)(13)

3(5) = (13)x

Simplify

13x = 15

Isolate the x. Divide by 13.

13x/13 = 15/13

x = 15/13

x = 1.2

1.2 is your answer

hope this helps
