Answer:

Substitute x into the first equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

4(15-4y) - 5y = -2

The variable x is already by itself on one side of the equation. Therefore, x = 15 - 4y which means we can substitute 15 - 4y into the first equation.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The constraint which represent a thriving population of penguins at the zoo is:

            0 < x ≤ 10   and   0 < y ≤ 20.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let x = the number of female penguins and y = the number of male penguins.

Now, it is given that:

The group needs two times more males than females to thrive, and the zoo only has room for 10 female penguins.

This means that:

   0 < x ≤ 10

( Because there are no room for more than 10 penguins )

Also,

   y= 2x

Since,

   x>0

This means that: 2x>0

i.e. y>0

and x ≤ 10

i.e. 2x ≤ 20

i.e.  y ≤ 20

Hence, the constraints which represent a thriving population of penguins at the zoo is:

                 0 < x ≤ 10 and 0 < y ≤ 20.

A car can travel 396 miles on 22 gallons of gasoline.how much gasoline will it need to go 468 miles?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

396 miles / 22 gallons = 18 miles per gallon

468 miles / 18 miles = 26 gallons of gasoline

What I did is I took the number of miles and divided it by the number of gallons to find how many gallons of gasoline were used per mile. Then I took that number of miles and divided 468 by it because that's the number of gallons we are trying to find. We ended up with 26 gallons of gasoline for 468 miles.
