Answer:

money saved by james = 30/2 = 15

equation used

money with James  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let money saved by sister be x

given

James has saved half the amount of money as his sister has saved.

Money saved by James = x/2

Total money saved by both of them = x + x/2

If they both save 30 more

Then

money with sister = x + 30

money with james = x/2 + 30

given that If they both save 30 more, james will have saved 3/4 as much as her sister

thus,

money with james  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

=> 4(x+30*2) /2 = 3x+90

=> 2x + 120 = 3x + 90

=> 3x-2x = 120-90

=> x = 30

Thus,

money saved by james = 30/2 = 15

equation used

money with james  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

Convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions and divide them to get them into decimals. Then see if pi is in between those numbers.

Ex: 2 3/4 = 11/4 = 2.75

Solve the system of equations using substitution and Elimination

Answer:

y = \frac{-18}{7} and x = \frac{50}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve simultaneous equations, you need to have the number in front of both x's or y's the same. (signs doesn't matter)

To get -x to -10x we simply  need to multiply the first equation by 10:

-x * 10 = -10x

-9y * 10 = -90y

16 * 10 = 160

-10x - 90y = 160

Now we can add the two equations:

-10x + 10x = 0

-90y + 20y = -70y

160 + 20 = 180

-70y = 180

70y = -180

7y = -18

y = \frac{-18}{7}

Now plug \frac{-18}{7} into the second equation:

10x + 20(\frac{-18}{7}) = 20

10x - \frac{360}{7} = 20

Move the \frac{360}{7} over to the other side, making it a positive:

10x = 20 + \frac{360}{7}

10x = \frac{500}{7}

Divide both sides by 10:

x = \frac{50}{7}

So y = \frac{-18}{7} and x = \frac{50}{7}

Which set of ordered pairs represents a function?
Lemur [1.5K]
It would be D, because to be a function, a set of ordered pairs cannot have the same x value. The y value can be the same though.
(5,6), (8,6), (9,6) 
As you can see, all of the x values are different, so it is a function.
