Answer:
2 books
Step-by-step explanation:
10 + 5x = 16 + 2x
- 2x - 2x
10 + 3x = 16
-10 -10
3x = 6
/3 /3
<u>x = 2</u>
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
X^3 -2x^2 -35x
=x(x^2-2x-35)
=x(x-7)(x+5)
Answer:
400 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told in the question that:
Jake runs the 100-meter dash in
track.
Erika runs a race 400% the distance of Jake's race.
Hence, the length of
Erika's race is calculated as:
400% × 100 - meter
= 4 × 100- meter
= 400 meters
Therefore, Erika's race was 400 meters long.
Answer:
(7, - 7 )
Step-by-step explanation:
- 4x + y = - 35 → (1)
- 2x - y = - 7 → (2)
adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the y- term
(- 4x - 2x) + (y - y) = - 35 - 7
- 6x + 0 = - 42
- 6x = - 42 ( divide both sides by - 6 )
x = 7
substitute x = 7 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
substituting into (1)
- 4(7) + y = - 35
- 28 + y = - 35 ( add 28 to both sides )
y = - 7
solution is (7, - 7 )
