ax - b = c

add b to both sides

ax - b + b = c + b

simplifying

ax =  c + b

divide both sides by a

ax / a =  (c + b) / a

simplifying

x =  (c + b) / a

Joey had 26 game cards. His friend Richard gave him some more, and now Joey has 100 cards. How many cards did Richard give to Jo
Roman55 [17]

Given:

Joey had 26 game cards.

His friend Richard gave him some more, and now Joey has 100 cards.

To find:

How many cards did Richard give to Joey?

Solution:

Let x be the number of cards that Richard give to Joey.

Joey had 26 game cards.

Now, the total cards joey has =26+x

Joey has total 100 cards.

26+x=100

x=100-26

x=74

Therefore, Richard gave him 74 cards.

Two lines intersect to form a linear pair with equal measures. One angle had the measure 2x and the other angle had the measure
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

x = 45, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that two lines form a linear pair with equal measures. Therefore, the angle between the two lines will be 90. Now, according to the question,

2x + 20y - 10 =90

2x+20y = 100

x + 10y = 50

And

2x = 20y-10

x = 10y -5

x - 10 y = -5

Now, adding x + 10y = 50 and x - 10y =-5, the value of x can be found. The required value will be:

x + 10y =50

x - 10y = -5

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

x = 45

Therefore, the value of y after substitution of the value of x in one of the equations will be:

90 = 20y - 10

20 y = 100

y = 5

Hence, the required value of x and y are 45 and 5 respectively.

True or false: for any 2 nonzero integers, the product and quotient have the same sign.
scoray [572]
Yes, it is true.
________________
For example,

take two integers 12 and 4

12 × 4 = 48 : product is positive

12 ÷ 4 = 3: quotient is positive
____________________

If you take -12 and 4

-12 × 4 = -48 : product is negative

-12 ÷ 4 = -3: quotient is negative
