Answer:
The combined score was 191
Explanation:
91 (Colin’s score) + 9 (how many more Brian had than Colin) = 100 (Brian’s score)
91 (Colin’s score) + 100 (Brian’s score) = 191 (combined score)
D because it is a decimal (lower than 0)
Answer
96 inches cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, same way of solving then. Just with a few more useless numbers. Take rectangular prism A, 6in x 3in x 3in, you will get 54in^3.
Then take prism B, 2in x 3in x 7in, you will get 42in^3.
Finally, take those two numbers, add them, and you end up with 96in^3
Answer:
90 hardcover books
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by setting up a couple of equations.
Let's allow x to represent the number of paperbacks Tim owns, and allow y to represent the number of hardcover books he owns.
Using the information in the question, we can write the equations:
1)x = 4y-3
2) x+y=447
Let's rearrange equation 1 so that it is in standard form:
x-4y=-3
And then let's multiply equation 2 by 4 so that we can cancel out y when we solve the system of equations:
4(x+y=447)
4x+4y=1,788
Then we can add the two equations and solve for x:
1) x-4y=-3
+ 2)4x+4y=1,788
------------------------------------
5x=1,785
x=357
So now we now the number of paperback books Tim has is 357. Let's plug this into one of the original equations to solve for the number of hardcover books (y):
357+y=447
y=90
And now we know that Tim owns 90 hardcover books.
