5 is the answer because it is a full number
Answer:
23 11/12 yards or 23.9166 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 of 100 yard race is equivalent to 66 2/3 yards. Tge difference between the above and 42 3/4 yards covered by tortoise will be
66 2/3- 42 3/4= 23 11/12 yards or 23.91666 yards
Answer:
19
Step-by-step explanation:
21 - 2 is 19
Answer:
57 cm²
Step-by-step explanation
<em>l = length</em>
<em>w = width</em>
<em>p = perimeter</em>
<em />
<em>(5x - 1) = length</em>
<em>(11 - 2x) = width</em>
<em>44 = perimeter</em>
<em />
<em>Formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:</em>
<em>l + l + w + w</em>
<em>2l + 2w = p</em>
<em />
<em>Substitute the variables for the length and width with the values given to you by the problem, then solve.</em>
<em></em>
<em>2(5x - 1) + 2(11 - 2x) = 44</em>
<em>(10x - 2) + (22 - 4x) = 44 (Distributive property)</em>
6x + 20 = 44
6x = 24
x = 4
<em>Plug x = 4 back into the length and width.</em>
Length = (5x - 1), (5(4) - 1), (19)
Width = (11 - 2x), (11 - 2(4)), (3)
<em>Area for a rectangle: Length × Width = Area.</em>
<em>19 × 3 = 57 cm²</em>
<em>This is all in cm so answer with cm²</em>
Answer: No, it is not a solution
==========================================================
Explanation:
The point (3,-4) means that x = 3 and y = -4 pair up together
Let's plug these x,y values into each equation
Starting with the first equation, we get,
y = 4x-16
-4 = 4(3)-16 ... x replaced with 3; y replaced with -4
-4 = 12-16
-4 = -4 .... this is a true statement
Repeat for the second equation
y = 2x-6
-4 = 2(3)-6
-4 = 6-6
-4 = 0 ... this is false
Since we get a false statement, this means (3,-4) is not on the line y = 2x-6, which means that overall (3,-4) is not a solution to the system of equations. The point (3,-4) must make both equations true for it to be a solution.
