To solve this problem, we must set up a system of equations. In this case, let's let Maggie's age be represented by the variable m and her brother's age be represented by the variable b. We are told that the sum of their ages is 24, which gives us our first equation: m + b = 24. We can construct our next equation from the first sentence of given information: b = 2m - 3. This makes our system of equations:
m + b = 24
b = 2m - 3
To solve, we are going to substitute the value for b in terms of m given by the second equation into the first equation for the variable b.
m + b = 24
m + 2m - 3 = 24
To simplify, we must first combine the variable terms on the left side of the equation using addition.
3m - 3 = 24
Next, we should add 3 to both sides of the equation to get the variable term alone on the left side of the equation.
3m = 27
Finally, we should divide both sides by 3 in order to get the variable m alone.
m = 9
Therefore, Maggie is 9 years old (using the first equation and substituting in this value you can find that her brother is 15 years old).
Hope this helps!
Answer:
lo que opinaria sería modo serio pero en realidad no pero bueno lo que creo que sería bien sería pieseses pero eso tiene cosa que ver con la metoforsosis o como se llame
You can find the dimensions of the model and plug them into the formula for volume (length x width x height)
Answer:
66%(technically 0.66 repeating)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to figure out what percentage of 69 equates to 46. In other words, we need to figure out what percentage <u>times</u> 69 equals 46:
Now that we formed this equation, we can solve for the percentage as if it was x.
First lets simplfy:
Now we can solve for x just by getting x alone, which means we must remove the coefficent. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 69:
=
Putting this into the form of percentage, we must multiply by 100. Since, the percentage form of a decimal is 100 times bigger(moved up 2 decimal places):
=
percentage = 66%

A has fixed one time fee of $12 and if you go to it say "m" months you pay $28 for each month, so your total cost at A is really 12 + 28m.
B has a fixed one time fee of $20 and if you go to it "m" months you pay $26 for each month, so you total cost at B is 20 + 26m.
how many months for the cost to be the same?
well, since the cost for both is the same, we can just get A's, knowing that B is the same
