Hey,
I could actually answer the question now, so I am going to put it here as well so the people don't have to read the comments above.
<span>Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse:<span>a² + b² = c²
5² + 5² = c²
25 + 25 = c²
50 = c²
√50=√(c^2 )
7.07 = c
Answer: 7

Start the equation by putting the equations equal to each other 3x+14=7x-10
Next +10 on both sides
3x+14=7x-10
+10 +10
You are left with 3x+24=7x
because the 10's canceled each other out.
Next -3x on both sides
3x+24=7x
-3x +3x
You are left with 24= 10x
because like before the 3's canceled each other out
Now you will divide both sides by 10
24=10x

10 10
2.4= X is the answer!
Let e=erasers and p=pencils. So we know the total amount of erasers plus pencils sold is equal to 220. Therefore,
We also know the cost of erasers and pencils totaled to $695 in earnings and so:
and so those are your two equations.
I'm not entirely sure about some of these because there could be multiple answers, i think. i'll just leave the ones i can't help you with blank.
1) Begin to (isolate) the (variable) by eliminating the (constant). To eliminate the constant, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___+___=___)
2) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing in the opisite side of the (equal sign).
3) Finish (isolating) the (variable) by eliminating the (coefficient). To eliminate the coefficient, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___x___=___,
4) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing on the opposite side of the (equal sign).
5) Check your answer by (plugging) it in or the _____.
honestly, i find it really amusing that they found a way to break a TWO-step equation into 5 steps ?? but i hope this helps a little!!
The numbers below are cut off. Can you please add another picture
