Answer:
d=3 and e=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
d+e=2
d=2-e-----(1)
d-e=4-----(2)
substituting (1) in (2)
2-e-e=4
-2e=2
e=-1-----(3)
substituting (3) in (1)
d=2-(-1)
d=3
Answer:
The number of trucks and sedans can be
(0 trucks ,26 sedans)
(8 trucks ,21 sedans)
(24 trucks ,11 sedans)
(25 trucks ,1 sedans)
(32 trucks ,6 sedans)
(16 trucks ,16 sedans)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The cost for trucks =$5
The cost for sedans =$8
The total amount collected = $208
To Find:
Number of trucks and sedans passed through the toll booth =?
Solution:
Let the number of trucks be x and the number of sedans be y
Then
5x + 8y = 208-------------------------------(1)
By Trail and error method
5(0) + 8(26) = 208
5(8) + 8(21) = 208
5(24) +8(11) =208
5(25) + 8(1) = 208
5(32) + 8(6) =208
5(16) + 8(16) = 208
Standard form is
ax+by=c
where a,b,c are integers
y+3=1/4x
timesboth sides by 4
4y+12=x
minus x both sides
-x+4y+12=0
minus 12 both sides
-x+4y=-12
(I like x to be positive so)
times both sides by -1
1x-4y=12
a=1
b=-4
c=12
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the percent change in a value between two points in time is:
p
=
N
−
O
O
⋅
100
Where:
p
is the percent change - what we are solving for in this problem.
N
is the New Value - 62 inches in this problem.
O
is the Old Value - 56 inches in this problem.
Substituting and solving for
p
gives:
p
=
62
−
56
56
⋅
100
p
=

56
⋅
100
p
=

56
p
=
10.7
rounded to the nearest tenth.
