Answer:
The infant mortality rate in Korea based on equality provided is:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the text mentions that the infant mortality rate in Korea is equal to the criminal success rate, the two expressions must equalize and clear the variable m, which is the rate in each of the expressions:
- 7 (m + 3) - 2 = 8m + 17.2
- 7m + 21 - 2 = 8m + 17.2
- 7m + 19 = 8m + 17.2
- 19 - 17.2 = 8m - 7m
- <u>1.8 = m</u>
As you can see, once the equality of the expressions is solved, <u>a rate of 1.8 is obtained</u>.
Answer:
19 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the first number and y represents second number
x + y = 19
x - y = 17 add two equations up
2x = 36 divide both sides by 2
x = 19 and since the difference is 17 the other number is 2
Turn 7/10 into decimal. (0.7)
Keep adding by 0.7 until you get the number closest to 4.1
3.5 is the closest, if we add another 0.7, we get 4.2.
So, he can get 5 sections of 0.7m
