Answer:
y is at most than -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1) You multiply -2 on both sides to get y by itself.
Than you have your answer. Now graph your answer on the number line.
That's easy you just need to listen in school to answer it
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 5y = 50
x + 5y = 31
use substitution
x = 31-5y
3(31-5y) +5y = 50
93 -15y + 5y = 50
93 - 10y = 50
--10y = -43
y = 43/10 = $4.30 for kids
now solve for x
x + 5(4.30) = 31
x + 21.5 = 31
x = $9.5 for adults
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can split the coins into 3 groups, each of them has 3 coins. Weigh group 1 vs group 2, if one is lighter, that group has the fake coin. If both groups weigh the same, then group 3 has the fake coin.
Continue to split the group that has the fake coin into 3 groups, each group has 1 coin. Now apply the same procedure and we can identify the fake coin.
Total of scale usage is 2
b) if you have coins then you can apply the same approach and find the fake coin with just n steps. By splitting up to 3 groups each step, after each step you should be able to narrow down your suspected coin by 3 times.
Step 1: you narrow down to group of coins
Step 2: you narrow down to group of coins
Step 3: you narrow down to group of coins
...
Step n: Step 1: you narrow down to group of coin
You would probably have to measure it greatest distance by ur least distance and subtract or add
