Answer:
X=3,y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simultaneous equation question and we will have to solve using substitution method
So let's solve
y=-2x+4...(1)
y=-2....(2)
Let's substitute (2) into (1)
-2=-2x+4
Substrate 4 from both sides
-6=-2x
Divide both sides by-2
x=3
Substitute the value of x in (1)
y=-2(3)+4
y=-6+4
y=-2
Therefore x is 3,y is -2
Answer:
$5
Explanation:
Since Jerry walked the dog from 6:40am to 7:30am, the total minutes that he walked the dog was 50 minutes. Also a note, an hour is 60 minutes.
Since he is paid at a rate of $6 per 60 minutes, we can make a proportion.
660=x50
From here, you have to solve for x. So cross multiply, and then simplify.
60x=50⋅6
60x60=50⋅6/60
60x60=50⋅6/60
x=5⋅6/6
x=5
So the answer is $5.
1st number = n
2nd number = n+1
3rd number = n+2
sum of the squares of 3 consecutive numbers is 116
n² + (n+1)² + (n+2)² = 116
n² + (n+1)(n+1) + (n+2)(n+2) = 116
n² + [n(n+1)+1(n+1)] + [n(n+2)+2(n+2)] = 116
n² + n² + n + n + 1 + n² + 2n + 2n + 4 = 116
n² + n² + n² + n + n + 2n + 2n + 1 + 4 = 116
3n² + 6n + 5 = 116 Last option.
