Simultaneous Equations
2u + b = $110
4u + 3b = $268
(x2) 4u + 2b = $220
(x1) 4u + 3b = $268
<em />If both the matching coefficients are the same, we subtract equation 2 from equation 1
2b - 3b = -b
$220 - $268 = $-48
-b = -$48
b = $48
If you want to find out what a unicycle costs...
Substitute b = $48 into the first equation
2u + $48 = $110
Balance the equation, whatever happens on one side, happens on the other.
2u + $48 (-$48) = $110 (-$48)
2u = $62
2u(/2) = $62(/2)
u = $31
Answer:
y = 3/4x + 19/2
Step-by-step explanation:
m = 3/4. point (-6,5)
Point slope form:
y-5=3/4(x- -6)
y -5 = 3/4x + 18/4. 18/4 = 9/2
Y = 3/4x + 9/2 + 5. 5 times 2 plus 9 over 2 = 19/2
y = 3/4x + 19/2
Answer: The man and the turkey cross the river, (the wolf and corn are safe together), he leaves the turkey on the other side and goes back across.
The man then takes the wolf across the river, and since he can't leave the wolf and turkey together, he brings the turkey back.
Again, since the turkey and corn can't be left together, he leaves the turkey and he takes the corn across and leaves it with the wolf.
He then returns to pick up the turkey and heads across the river one last time.
...... this is a very old riddle. lol I had forgotten about it.
Answer:
The area in factored form is
.
The area in standard form is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is length times width.
So the area here is (x+2)(x-5).
They are probably not looking for A=(x+2)(x-5) because it requires too little work.
They probably want A in standard form instead of factored form.
Let's use foil:
First x(x)=x^2
Outer: x(-5)=-5x
Inner: 2(x)=2x
Last: 2(-5)=-10
---------------------Adding together:
.
The area in factored form is
.
The area in standard form is
