Substitute (-1)3-(-1)+(-1)0
multiply (-3)+1+0
simplify. -2
Final Answer: -2
Two vertical angles are formed. These angles are also equal to each other.
Answer:
-9
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(5)+1
=-10+1
=-9
Substitute the 5 in for x
Solve algebrically 3x - 4y = -24 and x + 4y = 8 is x = -4 and y = 3
<u>Solution:</u>
We have been given two equations which are as follows:
3x - 4y = -24 ----- eqn 1
x + 4y = 8 -------- eqn 2
We have been asked to solve the equations which means we have to find the value of ‘x’ and ‘y’.
We rearrange eqn 2 as follows:
x + 4y = 8
x = 8 - 4y ------eqn 3
Now we substitute eqn 3 in eqn 1 as follows:
3(8 - 4y) -4y = -24
24 - 12y - 4y = -24
-16y = -48
y = 3
Substitute "y" value in eqn 3. Therefore the value of ‘x’ becomes:
x = 8 - 4(3)
x = 8 - 12 = -4
Hence on solving both the given equations we get the value of x and y as -4 and 3 respectively.
Question:
You are in a bike race. When you get to the first checkpoint, you are 2/5 of the distance to the second checkpoint. When you get to the second check point, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish. If the entire race is 40 miles, what is the distance between the start and the first check point?
Answer: 4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let distance between start to first checkpoint = x
First checkpoint to second checkpoint = 2/5 of x
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 of start to checkpoint 2)
Distance of start to checkpoint 2 = (1/4 of start to finish)
If start to checkpoint 2 = 1/4 of start to finish
Then,
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 * 1/4 of start to finish)
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = 2/20 of start to finish = 1/10 of start to finish
Entire race = 40 miles = distance from start to finish
1/ 10 of 40
= ( 1/10) × 40
= 4 miles
