Answer:
3l + 1s
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The expression to represent 50% of the money collected : 0.50(6l + 2s)
Expanding the expression :
0.50(6l + 2s)
(0.50 * 6l) + (0.50 * 2s)
3l + 1s
Hence, the simplified expression is 3l + 1s
Answer:
8 and 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two unknown numbers be a and b.
When added together, they equal 17. In other words:
a + b = 17.
The <em>difference</em> between five times the first number and three times the second number is 13. In other words:
5a - 3b = 13.
We have a system of equations. We can use substitution. From the first equation, we can derive a = 17 - b. Let's substitute this in:
5(17 - b) - 3b = 13
85 - 5b - 3b = 13
-8b = -72
b = 9
a = 17 - b.
a = 17 - 9 = 8.
Thus, the two numbers are 8 and 9.

Answer:
parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
The "work" is to recognize that both equations describe horizontal lines. All horizontal lines on the Cartesian coordinate grid are parallel.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
y = constant . . . . . a horizontal line (y=0 is the x-axis)
x = constant . . . . . a vertical line (x=0 is the y-axis)
__
If you wanted to go to the trouble, you could compare the equation ...
y = constant
to the slope-intercept form ...
y = mx +b
Your comparison would note that m=0. That is, the slope is zero, so the line is horizontal. All lines with the same (zero) slope are parallel.
