Solve the following problems using 5-D process part 2
svet-max [94.6K]

The two problems are almost identical: you have to set up a system, and then solve it.

In the first case, let g and b be, respectively, the number of girls and boys.

We know that g=2b+4 (the number of girls in the Spanish Club is four more than twice the number of boys). Also, we know that g+b=61 (there are 61 students in total).

So, we have the system

\begin{cases}g=2b+4\\g+b=61\end{cases}

We can use the first equation to substitute in the second

g+b=61 \iff (2b+4)+b=61 \iff 3b+4=61 \iff 3b=57 \iff b=19

And then solve for g:

g=2b+4=2\cdot 19+4=38+4=42

For the second problem, let c and j be the number of pins knocked down by, respectively, Carrie and John. Just like before, we have the system

\begin{cases}c=j+12\\c+j=230\end{cases}

And you can solve it in the very same way we solved the previous one.

How do i solve this inequality? Number 46
myrzilka [38]
6(x-2.5) ≥ 8-6(3.5+x)

A number is before a parenthesis. The first step is to multiply.

6(x-2.5) = 6x -15

8-6(3.5+x)
2(3.5+x)= 7+2x

6x-15≥7+2x

Now solve

6x-15≥7+2x
-2x -2x

(-2x+2x)= They cancel out

(6x-2x)= 4x

4x-15≥7
+15 +15

4x≥22
/4 /4

You get= x≥5.5

Brainliest given ! Help needed!! geometry dilations !! Explain if possible.
iren2701 [21]

If we consider each alphabet is at 1 unit, then U is at a distance of 1 unit and X is at a distance of 4 units . To find the scale factor, we need to see 1 multiply by what is equal to 4. And 1*4=4

So the scale factor is 4 . And the answer is 4 .
