Answer: Melanie swam 63 minutes more in second week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given , Time taken by Melanie in first week to swim = 142 minutes
Combined time taken by her in first two weeks in swimming = 347 minutes
Now , time taken by her in second week = (Combined time of first two week) - (Time taken in first week)
= 347-142 minutes
= 205 minutes
Clearly , 205 > 142 i.e. She swam more in second week than first week./
Difference i= 205-142 = 63
Therefore, Melanie swam 63 minutes more in second week.
Hey the answer is -0.2. You have to divide 10 by both sides to isolate the variable
12x - 8y = -12
6x + 4y = -30
Multiply the 2nd equation by 2, to make the Y coefficients opposite:
6x + 4y = -30 x 2 = 12x + 8y = -60
Now add the two equations:
12x -8y = -12 + 12x +8y = -60
= 24x = -72
Divide bothe sides by 24 to solve for x:
x = -72/24
x = -3
Now replace x with -3 in the first equation to solve for y:
12(-3) - 8y = -12
-36 - 8y = -12
Add 36 to each side:
-8y = 24
Divide both sides by -8 to solve for y:
y = 24 / -8
y = -3
X = -3 and y = -3
(-3,-3)
Answer: x=−2 or x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Factor left side of equation.
2(x+2)(x−8)=0
Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.
x+2=0 or x−8=0
x=−2 or x=8
The answer is 462 apples was in the shipment or 33 bags!
1 bag = 14 apples
24 bags sold = 336 apples
126 apples was not sold = 9 bags
24 bags + 9 bags = 33 bags
33 bags * 14 apples/per bags = 462 apples
