The sum is adding
3 times a number is 3x
And 15 is +15
3x+15
Answer: m= -2
b= 14
y= -2x+14
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you estimate to find the m. After you get -2, you plug the numbers in, and see what you add to get x.
Answer:
Cody has solved (12 × 12) = 144 problems.
Step-by-step explanation:
For every one problem that Julia completes, Cody completes twelve.
If Julia Completes x problems and Cody completes y problems, then we can write y = 12x ........ (1)
Now, given that the number of problems solved by Cody is one hundred twenty more than two times the number of problems solved by Julia.
Hence, 2x + 120 = y ......... (2)
Now, from equations (1) and (2) we get,
2x + 120 = 12x
⇒ 10x = 120
⇒ x = 12
Therefore, Cody has solved (12 × 12) = 144 problems. (Answer)
