Answer:
4h + 100
Step-by-step explanation:
h = total number of hats
postcards = 2h
magnets = h + 100
Add them all together:
h + 2h + h + 100 = 4h +100
This is a one variable equation in algebra.
X = 2
Answer:
- 39/8y
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to find a common denominator:
There is already a y in both denominators, so you don't have to worry about that. Since only one denominator has an 8, the other needs to have an 8, so you need to multiply the first fraction by 8 → - 4/y * 8 = - 32/8y
From here you can subtract the numerators:
- 32/8y +(- 7/8y) = - 39/8y
Because you are adding a negative to a negative, it makes the number mroe negative
I hope this helps!
There's some unknown (but derivable) system of equations being modeled by the two lines in the given graph. (But we don't care what equations make up these lines.)
There's no solution to this particular system because the two lines are parallel.
How do we know they're parallel? Parallel lines have the same slope, and we can easily calculate the slope of these lines.
The line on the left passes through the points (-1, 0) and (0, -2), so it has slope
(-2 - 0)/(0 - (-1)) = -2/1 = -2
The line on the right passes through (0, 2) and (1, 0), so its slope is
(0 - 2)/(1 - 0) = -2/1 = -2
The slopes are equal, so the lines are parallel.
Why does this mean there is no solution? Graphically, a solution to the system is represented by an intersection of the lines. Parallel lines never intersect, so there is no solution.
