2r +2s = 50
2r - s = 17

Multiply the top by -1
-2r - 2s = -50
2r - s = 17
-3s = -33
s = 11

Then plug 11 in the first equation to get r
2r + 2(11) = 50
2r + 22 = 50
2r = 28
r = 14

so 11 and 14

R = 14
s = 11

2(14)+2(11)=50
28+22=50

2(14) - 11 =17
28 - 11 =17

The time in new York is 16.45 (EDT).what is the time in brisbane(AEST)which is 14 hours ahead?
elena-s [515]
Answer: 06.45

Explanation: For this problem, it is essential to know that there are 24 hours in a day. With that said, we take our starting time of 16.45 and since we want to know what time it is 14 ahead (addition), we add the two numbers together.

16.45 + 14 = 30.45

Since there are only 24 hours in a day, and we have exceeded that value, we subtract 24.

30.45 - 24 = 06.45

And that is the time in Brisbane.

Alternatively, you can count time in 12-hour format and convert 16.45 to 4.45 pm by subtracting 12.

Knowing your start time is 4.45pm simply add 14 to that (or change the pm to an and add 2 since 14-12=2).

You will again get 6.45am.

Cheers.

4a. In a book store, for every 9 books sold, 13 magazines were sold. If they had a 572 sales, how many of the sales were for boo
topjm [15]

Answer:

234 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to set up a proportion. Be careful to note what it looks like and the explanation that follows.

9 books            13 magazines

=======     =     ===========

x                        572 - x                Cross multiply

What you want is the number of book sales from the proportion.

However all you have is the ratio of books to magazines. So you have to set up the total sales to magazines, which is a bit awkward.  572 - x is the number of magazine sales.

9*(572 - x) = 13x                        Remove the  brackets on the left.

5148- 9x = 13x                           Add 9x to both sides.

5148 = 13x + 9x                         Transpose and add the right.

22x = 5148                                Divide by 22

x = 5148/22

x = 234                    

234 books were sold.
