Answer:

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1 credit courses

y = 2 credit courses

The number of courses is 16

x+y = 16

The number of credits is 28 so multiply the course by the number of credits

1x+2y=28

Subtract the first equation from the second equation

x+2y =28

-x-y=-16

-----------------

y = 12

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

We still need to find the 1 credit courses

x+y = 16

x+12= 16

Subtract 12 from each side

x-12-12 = 16-12

x =4

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

Reason 3) Given frome the problem statement(because it says that AB/cong CD)

Reason 4) Because two lines congruent to each other have the same length

Reason 5(You didn't explain well)) BC=AB=CD, so BC=CD(Specific reason: Transitivity of equality)

And we're done!

An ulcer patient has been told to avoid acidic foods. If he drinks coffee, with a pH of 5.0, it bothers him, but he can tolerate
kirill [66]
The equation should look like :
[H+] = (1-a)(x) + (a)(y)
Where:
5.8 = -log [H+]
5.0 = -log x 
6.9 = -log y 
(1-a) = proportion of x
<span>a = proportion of y
so calculating a will give you the result of how many ounces are required</span>

Inessa [10]

Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the scale factor, we have ...

  x/8 = 0.25/1

  x = 8(0.25) . . . . multiply by 8

  x = 2

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

I like to write proportions with the variable in the numerator. That way they are easily solved by a single multiplication. The trick is to get corresponding parts in the same positions. Here, the fractions are written ...

  B/A = smaller part / larger part = x/8 = 0.25/1
