Answer:
SUM OF ALL ANGLES OF A TRIANGLE =180
THEREFORE,
X+8+2X-3+6X-5=180
9X=180
X=20.
THEREFORE,<J=X+8=20+8=28
<K=6X-5=6*20-5=120-5=115
<L=2X-3=2*20-3=40-3=37.
Answer:
the number of miles is 160
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is given below:
Let us assume the miles be x
For company A
y = $100 + $0.40x
And, for company B
y = $20 + $0.90x
In order to find out the number of miles, the rental cost of the company A should be less than the company B rental cost
SO,
$20 + $0.90x > $100 + $0.40x
Subtract $20 from both sides
0.90x > 80 + 0.40x
Now subtract 0.40x from both sides
0.50x >80
x>160
So the number of miles is 160
Identity Property of Zero!
I hope this helps xD
Write an equation system based on the problem
For an instance, e stands for the price of a carton of eggs, and b stands for the price of a loaf of bread
"Kate bought 3 cartons of eggs and 5 loaves of bread for $30.07" could be written as 3e + 5b = 30.07 (first equation)
"Melissa bought 2 cartons of eggs and 2 loaves of bread for $14.74" could be written as 2e + 2b = 14.74 (second equation)
Solve the equation system using elimination method
Eliminate b to find e. To eliminate b, we should equalize the coefficient of b.
3e + 5b = 30.07 (multiplied by 2)
2e + 2b = 14.74 (multiplied by 5)
-------------------------------------------
6e + 10b = 60.14
10e + 10b = 73.70
------------------------- - (substract)
-4e = -13.56
e = -13.56/-4
e = 3.39
The price for a carton of eggs is $3.39
3/2 = 9/6 blackberries, then 7/3 = 14/6 blueberries. 14-9=5, and so then 5/6 pints of blueberries was used more than blackberries.
the answer is 5/6! : )
