Answer:

Ricky had 1199 hits.

Pedro had 1482 hits.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>State your variables</u>

let "p" be the number of Pedro's base hits

let "r" be the number of Ricky's base hits

<u>Create equations</u> using information from the problem

p + r = 2681         [1]

p = r + 283          [2]

<u>Substitute equation [2] in equation [1]</u> replacing 'p'

p + r = 2681

r + 283 + r = 2681

<u>Combine like terms</u> to simplify

2r + 283 = 2681

<u>Isolate '"r"</u> to solve for Ricky's base hits.

2r + 283 - 283 = 2681 - 283            Subtract 283 on both sides

2r = 2398        

2r/2 = 2398/2               Divide both sides by 2

r = 1199              Number of Ricky's hits

Substitute r = 1199 into any equation to find "p". I will use [2].

p = r + 283

p = 1199 + 283         Add

p = 1482              Number of Pedro's hits

Therefore Ricky had 1199 hits and Pedro had 1482 hits.

Ted jogged a total of 11.2 miles in 4 days. He jogged the same distance each day
marta [7]

Answer:

Part A: 2.8 miles

Part B: 16.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for how many miles Ted jogged in 1 day:

Variable x = number of miles

11.2/4 = x/1

Cross multiply

11.2 × 1 = 4 × x

11.2 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

2.8 = x

He jogged 2.8 miles every day.

To find how many miles Ted would jog in 6 days, simply multiply his miles per day by the number of days he will jog:

2.8 miles × 6 days = 16.8 miles in 6 days

What is the linear equation for 3x+2y=62
scZoUnD [109]
<span>In this formula :

</span><span>y </span>tells us how far up the line goes
<span>x </span>tells us how far along
<span>m </span>is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is
<span>b </span>is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the<span> line properties.</span><span> We shall now graph the line </span><span> 3x+2y-62  = 0</span><span> and calculate its properties
</span>

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 31/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=31.00000

<span>  y-intercept = 62/2 = 31
</span>

When y = 0 the value of x is 62/3 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=20.66667

<span>  x-intercept = 62/3 = 20.66667

</span>

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 31.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 28.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 28.000 - 31.000 = -3.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

<span>  Slope = -3.000/2.000 = -1.500

</span><span>
1.Slope = -3.000/2.000 = -1.500 

2.x-intercept = 62/3 = 20.66667<span> 

3.y-intercept = 62/2 = 31


I got sources from a few websites so excuse if something is weird/wrong.
