I think it’s

X + y= 36

X - 2y= 7

I hope this helps you have a good day

Answer:

x + y = 36.....Equation 1

x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of:

Orange goldfish = x

Black gold fish = y

Anna has a total of 36 goldfish in her aquarium, some are orange and some are black.

x + y = 36.....Equation 1

The number of orange goldfish is 7 more than twice the number of black goldfish.

x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2

We can rewrite this as:

x - 2y = 7..... Equation 2

The system of equations below that can be used to describe the number of black and orange goldfish in Anna's aquarium is :

x + y = 36.....Equation 1

x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2

the two shorter sides of a triangle are the same length. the length of the longer side is 5 m longer than each of the shorter si
STatiana [176]
Let the length of the shorter sides be x, then
Perimeter = x + x + x + 5
29 = 3x + 5
3x = 29 - 5 = 24
x = 24/3 = 8

Therefore, the length of longest side is 8 + 5 = 13 m.

A man travelled 3/8 of his journey by a rail 1/4 by a taxi 1/8 by and the remaining 2km on foot what is the length of his total
Burka [1]
The man travelled in different ways: by rail, by taxi, by ___ and by foot. I placed a blank there because there seems to be a missing word in the given problem above. For sample purposes, let's just assume that is travel by bus.

Since all of these travels are equal to 1 whole journey, you can express each travel as a fraction. When you add them up, the answer would be 1. So,

3/8 + 1/4 + 1/8 + x = 1

The variable x here denotes the fraction of his travel by foot. We are only given the exact distance travelled on foot which is 2 km. We have to find the fraction of the travel by foot to determine the length of the total distance travelled. Solving for x,

x = 1 - 3/8 - 1/4 - 1/8
x = 1/4

That means that the travel by foot comprises 1/4 of the whole journey. Thus,

Let total distance be D.

1.4*D = 2 km
D = 8 km

Therefore, the man travelled a total of 8 kilometers.
