<span>a washer and a dryer cost 659$ combined. The washer costs 91$ less than the dryer, how much was the dryer?  
</span><span>washer --> x
dryer --> y

x + y = 659$
y = x + 91$

x + x + 91$ = 659$

2x = 659$ - 91$

2x = 568$ |:2

x = 284$
y = x + 91$ = 284$ + 91$ = 375$

The dryer costs 375$ and washer costs 284$</span>

W+D=659

W=D-91

---------------------------

(D-91)+D=659

D-91+D=659

2D=750

D=750/2=375

------------------------------

W+375=659

W=284

------------------------------

So the dryer had cost $375 and the washer had cost $284.

Gilbert and Brian drove 604 miles in 11.6 hours. Gilbert drove the first part of the trip and averaged 45 miles per hour. Brian
AVprozaik [17]

The length of hours Gilbert drove is 7.5 hours.

The length of hours Brian drove is 4.1 hours.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Gilbert averaged = 45 miles per hour
  • Brain averaged = 65 miles per hour
  • Total hours = 11.6 hours
  • Total distance = 604 miles

Let 'x' be the hours Gilbert drove.

Let 'y' be the hours Brian drove.

x+y = 11.6  -----(1)

45x+65y = 604 -----(2)

Multiply (1) by 45 and subtract (2) from (1)

 45x+45y = 522

-(<u>45x+65y = 604</u>)

 <u>      -20y = -82 </u>

y = 82/20

y = 4.1 hours

The length of hours Brian drove = 4.1 hours

Substitute y=4.1 in (1)

x+4.1 = 11.6

x = 7.5 hours

The length of hours Gilbert drove = 7.5 hours

Select all of the values for a that would make the inequality 2x &gt; 10 true.
babunello [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x > 10       Divide by 2

2x/2 >10/2

x > 5

x cannot be 5 or anything smaller.

In English, x >5 reads as x must be greater than 5. (It can't be equal to 5 because 5 is not greater than 5)

The only two items that work are

8 which is greater than 5 and

30 which is also greater than 5

Oatmeal is made by mixing 15 cups of hot water to 6 cups of oats.
skad [1K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 2/5 cups oats per cup water
  • 2.5 cups water per cup oats

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator of the fraction is the unit you want 1 of.

  (6 cups oats)/(15 cups water) = (6/15) cups oats/(1 cup water)

  = (2/5 cups oats)/(1 cup water)

1 cup of water would need 2/5 cups of oats.

__

Obviously, the other ratio is the reciprocal of this.

  (1 cup water)/(2/5 cups oats) = (5/2 cups water)/(1 cup oats)

1 cup of oats would need 2.5 cups of water
