(5, 3)

x y

Plug in:

x + y = 8

5 + 3 = 8

8 = 8

Plug in:

17(5) + 17(3) = 8

85 + 51 = 8

136 = 8

Answer - No, (5, 3) is not a solution to this system of equations.

21 years ago Alvin was 11 times older than Tomio. The sum of their present age is 54.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Not sure exactly what answer you are looking for. But I assume it is the ages of them. Their original ages would be Tomio - 1 year old, Alvin - 11 years old. Now, Tomio - 22, Alvin - 32

Step-by-step explanation:

1(tomio) x 11 = 11 (alvin) (add 21 to these)

22+32=54

Zach and Ginny are building model cars. Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car. The sum of the lengths of b

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

$x+(3x+2)=30$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of Zach's car

y ----> the length of Ginny's car

we know that

The sum of the lengths of both cars is 30 inches

$x+y=30$ ----> equation A

Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car

$y=3x+2$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$x+(3x+2)=30$

2x-8=4(x+1). Solve for X please!

julsineya [31]

Answer:

-6 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-8=4(x+1)

Distribute

2x -8 = 4x+4

Subtract 2x

2x-8-2x = 4x-2x+4

-8 = 2x+4

Subtract 4

-8-4 = 2x+4-4

-12 = 2x

Divide by 2

-12/2 = 2x/2

-6 = x

The variable Z is directly proportional to X. when X is 15, Z has the value of 45. what is the value of Z when X=23

IrinaVladis [17]

$If\ Z\ is\ directly\ proportional\ to\ X\ then\ \frac{Z}{X}=const.\\------------------------\\X=15\ and\ Z=45\\\\X=23\ and\ Z=?\\\\\frac{Z}{23}=\frac{45}{15}\to\frac{Z}{23}=3\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 23\\\\\huge\boxed{Z=69}$
