Team A: 15 points
Team B: 3 points
Team A has twelve more points than Team B:
A = B + 12
Team A has five times as many points as Team B:
A = B × 5
A = 5B
substitute "A" with "B + 12" to solve for B:
A = 5B
(B + 12) = 5B
B + 12 = 5B
12 = 5B - B
12 = 4B
3 = B
Team B has 3 points
now substitute "B" with 3 to solve for A:
A = 5B
A = 5(3)
A = 15
Team A has 15 points
Check your answer by inputting both values into either equation:
A = 5B
(15) = 5(3)
15 = 15 ✔
A = B + 12
(15) = (3) + 12
15 = 15 ✔
Answer:
D) 26/48
Step-by-step explanation:
/ = division sign
26/48 also means 26 divided by 48.
Simple math.
Answer: y = -4x
Step-by-step explanation: You would use the formula y = mx + b to solve your problem. When you plug the numbers in, you get y = -4x. There would be no "+ b" because in this case, the y-intercept (b) is equal to zero. Therefore, you would not need to write "y = -4x + 0" because that would not be the equation in its simplest form.
Answer:
h = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the 2 to the parentheses:
5h + 2(11 - h) = -5
5h + 22 - 2h = -5
Add like terms:
3h + 22 = -5
3h = -27
h = -9
