Perimeter = sum of all sides
32 = 2(x+2) + 2(7)
32 = 2x+4 + 14
32 = 2x+18
14 = 2x
/2 /2
7 = x
Answer:
OOF
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
An inverse variation is
xy = k where k is the constant of variation
8*9 = k
72 = k
xy = k
Let y = 12
x*12 = 72
Divide each side by 12
12x/12 =72/12
x = 6
Let x be the number of weeks; therefore, the two linear equations are
Where T stands for the punches on the tea punch card and C for the punches on the coffee punch card.
Solving by substitution. Set T=C, then
Thus, substitute the value of x=3 into the first equation,
Thus, after 3 weeks, Josiah will have the same number of punches on each card, and he will have 23 punches on each card.
Answer:
x = 3
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of substitution is when one solves an equation for one of the variables, and then substitutes the expression into the other equation. After doing so, one will solve the other equation for the remaining variable and then backsolve for the first variable.
4x + 2y = 12
x = y + 3
The second equation is already sovled for parameter (x), subttiute this into the other equation,
4(y + 3) + 2y = 12
Distribute,
4y + 12 + 2y = 12
Simplify,
6y + 12 = 12
Inverse operations,
6y + 12 = 12
-12
6y = 0
/6
y = 0
Backsolve for (x), substitute the value of (y) into the equation for (x) and solve,
x = y + 3
x = 0 + 3
x = 3
