The missing number is 13 since 60-47=13 so A=13
Answer:
49 litres of petrol are needed to travel from town X to town Y and back.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, first off, the variable X and Y, as well as the distance given (124 km) aren't important pieces of information in this equation. They're only there to throw you off and confuse you.
25L of <em>p</em> (petrol) to make the entire journey. After the engine has been tuned, it requires 2% less <em>p</em> than before it was tuned.
2%/100 = 0.02
0.02 * 25L = 0.5L
25L - 0.5L = 24.5L
Now, don't forget, at the end of the word problem we're asked how many litres of <em>p</em> would be required to travel from <em>x</em> to <em>y</em> <em><u>AND BACK</u></em>. So it's not only 24.5L, it's double that (24.5 * 2 = 49L)
Good luck!!
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(x, y) = (4, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation gives an expression for y that can be substituted into the second equation:
3(2x -5) -x = 5
5x -15 = 5 . . . . . . simplify
5x = 20 . . . . . . . .add 15
x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
y = 2(4) -5 = 3 . . substitute for x in the first equation
(x, y) = (4, 3)
