So you would distribute what's in the parenthesis and end up with 4x-2x-6=x+1, then you combine like terms and end up with 2x-6=x+1, now you can add 6 to both sides or subtract 1 both sides (basically anything goes for this step just make sure you apply the same thing on both sides) so I'll add 6 and continue just to show you... then you end up with 2x=x+7 then you subtract 1x on both sides to get x=7. sorry it's a lot hopefully you get it know!
If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:
20/x = 40/100
20/x = 4/10
20/x = 2/5
x = 50.
Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.
Answer:
Hello I'lll solve this problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
So the answer is actually C. I did the work.
Y> or equal 82P/100
P-maximum points of the tests
Because you can't solve for two variables at once, you can guess and trial/error.
You can also give x or y any value, and then solve for the opposite variable.
x = 0
y = -36
for example. There are more solutions.
y + 8 = -4(x+7)
-36 + 8 = -4(0+7)
-28 = 0 - 28
-28 = -28
