Answer:

8 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

X + Y = 22

X= 22-Y

4X= 7Y

4(22-Y) = 7Y

88-4Y=7Y

88= 11Y

8=Y

X= 22-Y= 22-8=14

The top of a table is a parallelogram with a base of 28 cm and a height of 20 cm. Patty wants to cover the table with tiles that

suter [353]

The area of the top of the table is 28 × 20 = 560 cm2. The area of Patty’s tiles is 8 cm2 each and the area of Jake’s tiles is 9 cm2 each. Patty will need 560 ÷ 8, or 70, tiles. Jake will need 560 ÷ 9, or about 63, tiles. So, Patty will use about 7 more tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $\frac{1}{2} ? \frac{1}{3}$

Want: Which fraction is larger?

To identify the size of a fraction, converting it into a fraction is easier

$\frac{1}{2}$ = 0.5

$\frac{1}{3}$ = 0.33

where 0.5 is greater than 0.33

Choices:

< is less than symbol

> is greater than symbol

Josie and her brothers and sisters measured their heights and found the mean averageThe mean was 150cmJosie forgot her height. C

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

135 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jose's height = x

The mean of their heights = 150

Given the Heights:

150cm, 170cm, 140cm, 155cm

The mean is the sum if the heights divided by the number of people

Here :

(150 + 170 + 140 + 155 + x) / 5 = 150

(615 + x) / 5 = 150

615 + x = 750

x = 750 - 615

x = 135 cm

Y=4+3x 2x+1=y What Is The Point Of Intersection?

nlexa [21]

Y = 4+3x
2x+1 = y

Rewrite as two systems of equations.

3x - y = -4
2x - y = -1

Now use the substitution method to find the point of intersection.

You can also graph both equations on the same xy-plane using your graphing calculator to find the desired point.

The length of a rectangle is 2 meters less than 3 times the width. The perimeter is 44

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Width of rectangle = 6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Width of rectangle = x

Length of rectangle = 3x-2

Perimeter of rectangle = 44 meters

We need to find:

The Width of rectangle.

The formula used is:

$Perimeter\:of\:rectangle=2(Length\times Width)$

Putting values and finding value of x

$Perimeter\:of\:rectangle=2(Length\times Width)\\44=2(3x-2+x)\\44=2(4x-2)\\44=8x-4\\8x=44+4\\8x=48\\x=\frac{48}{8}\\x=6$

So, we get the value of x = 6.

We know that Width of rectangle = x = 6

So, Width of rectangle = 6 meters
