It could be 5x, 5 being the digit, x being "a number"
Answer:
The one in the middle goes first the one first goes to the middle the last one stays there
we have
y > -2
x + y < 4
using a graph tool
see the attached figure
The shaded area is the solution of the system
<u>Part 1) </u>Name an ordered pair that is a solution to this system and explain how you know that this is a solution point
Let
A ( -40,20)
The point A is solution of the system because the point lie on the shaded area
<u>Check</u>
If the point A is solution of the system must satisfy both system inequalities
point A
x=-40
y=20
substitute
y > -2-------> 20 > -2-------> is ok
x + y < 4----> -40+20 < 4-----> -20 < 4-----> is ok
therefore
<u>the answer Part 1) is</u>
The point A is a solution of the system
Part 2) Name an ordered pair that is not a solution to the system and explain how you know that it is not a solution
Let
B(20,20)
The point B is not solution of the system because the point not lie on the shaded area
<u>Check</u>
If the point B is not solution of the system must not satisfy both system inequalities
point B
x=20
y=20
substitute
y > -2 -------> 20 > -2-------> is ok
x + y < 4---->20+20 < 4-----> 40 < 4------> is not ok
therefore
<u>the answer part 2) is</u>
The point B is not a solution to the system
Answer:
Age of Mel is 25 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,the sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age.
Let 'x' be the Ali's age and 'y' be the Mel's age
<u>To find the value of x and y</u>
sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39
⇒ x + y = 39 ------(1)
Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age
⇒ y = 2x - 3 -------(2)
⇒ 2x - y = 3 -----(3)
(1) + (3) ⇒
x + y = 39
2x - y = 3
----------------
3x = 42
x = 42/3 = 14
y = 2x - 3 = 14*2 - 3 = 25
Therefore the age of Ali = 14
Age of Mel = 25
