Answer:
A: x + y = 55; y - x = 25
B: 15 minutes running
C: no
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part A:</h3>
The two equations relate to the total number of minutes, and to the difference specified in the problem statement.
x + y = 55 . . . . . . total time is 55 minutes
y = x + 25 . . . . . . dances 25 minutes longer
__
<h3>Part B:</h3>
We can substitute for y in the first equation to find the value of x, the time spent running.
x + (x +25) = 55
2x = 30 . . . . subtract 25
x = 15 . . . . . . divide by 2
Jackie spends 15 minutes running each day.
__
<h3>Part C:</h3>
The value of y from is found using the second equation:
y = x +25 = 15 +25 = 40
Jackie <u>will not spend 45 minutes dancing</u> if she meets the requirements on times.

2 3/5 is 2.6 as a mixed fraction
Answer:
x = 78º
y = 35º
Step-by-step explanation:
These are isosceles triangles
two angles are congruent
-----------------------------
x + 51 + 51 = 180
x = 180 - 102
x = 78º
y + y + 110 = 180
2y = 70
y = 35º
