The sum of two numbers is 44. One number is 2 more than twice the other. Write a system of equations that defines this situation
and solve using any method.
2 answers:
System: x + y = 44; x = 2y + 2
Solve with substitution: x = 30; y = 14
x + y = 44
x = 2y + 2
Substitute 2y + 2 for x
2y + 2 + y = 44
3y + 2 = 44
Subtract 2 on both sides.
3y = 42
y = 14
Now substitute back in.
x + 14 = 44
Subtract 14 on both sides.
x = 30
Answer:
20 + 24 = 44

Let’s first find the rate that she types at in wok.
128/3 = 42+2/3 words per minute.
Now divide 576 by the rate.
576/42.666= 13.5 minutes
Answer:
Except 4 out of 6
the answer is the third one
No they are not equivalent
Remember, order of operations
exponent before multiply
so 4x^5/6=4 times x^5/6
simplify the x^5/6 first
remember
![x^\frac{m}{n}=\sqrt[n]{s^m}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%5Cfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bs%5Em%7D)
so
![x^\frac{5}{6}=\sqrt[6]{x^5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B6%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B6%5D%7Bx%5E5%7D)
so
![4x^\frac{5}{6}=4\sqrt[6]{x^5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4x%5E%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B6%7D%3D4%5Csqrt%5B6%5D%7Bx%5E5%7D)
