Answer:
a=2.48
c=9.52
Step-by-step explanation:
a+c=12
4a+7.5c=72.5 Given
a+c=12
-4a-7.5c=-72.5 multiply the equation by negative 1
-3a-6.5c=-60.5 simplify
-3a=-60.5+6.5c add 6.5c to both sides
a=-20.17+2.17c divide it by 3
now you would take that equation and plug it into an equation you already have since you have something to plug in for a, the easiest one to do is a+c=12
(-20.17+2.17c)+c=12 plug in the equation
-20.17+3.17c=12 simplify by solving for c
3.17c=30.17 add 20.17 to both sides
c=9.52 divide both sides by 3.17
now since you have found c, you can plug it in to you equation to solve for a now (use the ones from the second step). I am using the equation a+c=12.
a+9.52=12 plug in the variable and solve for a
a=2.48 subtract 9.52 to both sides
a=2.48
c=9.52
Answer: 3j-6k+4
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to distribute the 3 to the j and the -2k since they are both in the parentheses. So it would look like (3*j) +(-2k*3)+4 and if you simplify that it is 3j-2k+4. After that there are no like terms so that is your answer.
Answer:575 and 1 extra tile
Step-by-step explanation:if the total tiles is 5,176 which will be used in 9 floors .We will divide the total tiles by the floors .Therefore we will get 5176 /9 =575.111
Therefore each floor will have 575 tiles
To get the remaining tiles
575*9 = 5175 which gives us a remainder of 1 tile when you subtract the total 5176 -5175 =1
If I'm interpreting this right, it's -36 since a half times ten is 5... so it comes down to 5-41 which equals -36.
