5 0

Answer:

(7, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first eq. by 3 to get 6x - 3y = 60

now do

6x + 3y = 60

- 6x - 5y = 12

--------------------

8y = 48

solve for y: y = 6

with this y value, plug it in to the first equation (easier to solve) and get 2x + 6 = 20

solve for x and get x = 7

so ans is (7, 6)

The length of a rectangle is 2 in longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 44 in , find its area.
valkas [14]
P = 2(L + W)
P = 44
L = W + 2

44 = 2(W + 2 + W)
44 = 2(2W + 2)
44 = 4W + 4
44 - 4 = 4W
40 = 4W
40/4 = W
10 = W

L = W + 2
L = 10 + 2
L = 12

A = L * W
L = 12
W = 10

A = 12 * 10
A = 120 square inches <===

Dan had 2 1/2 cookies and ate 1/2 of a cookie. Of the original number of cookies, the fractional part that he ate was
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

1/2 is the fractional part of cookie which was eaten by Dan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dan has 2 1/2 cookies and ate 1/2, so we can just subtract the 2 1/2-1/2

which cancels out the 1/2, which is the fractional part.

He has 2 cookies left.

The population of mosquitoes in a certain area increases at a rate proportional to the current population, and in the absence of
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

P=400000(2^t)-40000t

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial number of mosquitoes is 400000, and they double each day. This represents an exponential growth equation. If t represent days and P represent the population of the mosquitoes, hence this can be represented by the equation:

P=400000(2^t)

Also, the predators eat the mosquitoes at a rate of 40,000 mosquitoes/day. This means that each day, the mosquitoes reduce by 40000t, therefore this can be represented by:

P=400000(2^t)-40000t
