So for this, we will be doing a system of equations. Using the info from our question, our two equations are:
(let x = greater number and y = lesser number)
Now, for this I will be using the substitution method. Since we know that x = 4y - 1, substitute that into the second equation:
From here we can solve for y. Firstly, combine like terms:
Next, subtract 4y on both sides of the equation:
Next, multiply both sides by -1:
Now that we know the value of y, substitute it into either equation to solve for x:
<h2>Answer:</h2>
In short, <u>5 is the lesser number and 19 is the greater number.</u>
I'll start by expanding everything, and 10^(x) means we move the decimal x places to the right. If we move the decimal to the right but there's no number there, that number is 0.
The populations are as follows (in the order in the graph) -
127,180,000
200,000,000
80,619,000
63,708,000
173,615,000
152,510,000
The first difference is the number of digits. The more, the better. The two that stand out at the bottom are Germany and the UK. Next, we look at the leftmost number. Since 6<8, Germany's population > UK's population. All other countries are greater than Germany. Next, we look at the next smallest amount of digits, which is every other country. We look at the first number, which gives us Japan, Nigeria and Bangladesh. Next, we look at the second number, and since 2<5<7, Japan is smaller than Bangladesh and Nigeria is bigger than Bangladesh. Our current list is as follows:
United Kingdom (UK), Germany, Japan, Bangladesh, Nigeria. Since Brazil
has been proven to be greater than the rest (as it has more digits and 2>1), our list is now
United Kingdom (UK), Germany, Japan, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Brazil
Answer:
It will take 17.5 minutes to reach 50 degrees F.
Step-by-step explanation:
Current temperature = -13 degrees F
With the engine on, the temperature goes up by 3.6°F per minute.
Let us assume that it takes x minutes to reach 50 degrees F.
So, the time taken will be =
=> 
=> 
x = 17.5 minutes
The expression that tells how much the temperature needs to change from -13°F to 50°F is :
It will take 17.5 minutes to reach 50 degrees F.
Let's say that y is the weight of the mother and x is the weight of the baby.
We know that the baby is 7437 pounds less than the mother, which means you need to add 7437 pounds to the baby's weight to get the mother's.
We can show it like this:
x+7437=y.
We know what the baby's weight is (1400 lbs), so just sub it in:
1400+7437=y
y=8837 lbs
The mom weighs 8837 pounds.
