Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the larger number be represented by x
Let the smaller number be represented by y
from the question, the next equations can be gotten :
x - y = 9 equation 1
x = 1 + 2y equation 2
Substitute for x in equation 1
1 + 2y - y = 9
1 + y = 9
Collect like terms
y = 9 - 1
y = 8
Substitute for y in equation 1 and solve for x (the larger number)
x - 8 = 9
x = 9 + 8
x = 17
Answer:
Just learned this-
They are both 1 because of it being to the power of zero and if you type the both in like...
Step-by-step explanation:
sin(73)^0 you get 1
tan(12)^0 you get 1
Let's solve your system by substitution.
−3x+y=−2;y=4x
Rewrite equations:
y=4x;−3x+y=−2
Step: Solvey=4xfor y:
y=4x
Step: Substitute4xforyin−3x+y=−2:
−3x+y=−2
−3x+4x=−2
x=−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Step: Substitute−2forxiny=4x:
y=4x
y=(4)(−2)
y=−8(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=−2 and y=−8
Answer:
2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x mph be the speed of motorboat in still water and y mph be the speed of current.
A raft and a motorboat simultaneously leave from the same point and move down the river, then speeds down the river are:
motorboat = x + y mph
raft = y mph
In two hours they will cover:
motorboat = 2(x+y) miles
raft = 2y miles
After 2 hours the motorboat turns around and starts moving towards the raft (against the current), so its speed is now x - y mph.
Let t be the time they move towards each other. In t hours, they cover
motorboat = t(x - y) miles
raft = ty miles
The distance from the starting point to the turning point is the same as the sum of the distances the raft covers and the motorboat covers after turning around, so
