You can solve this by algebraically as well as graphically. When I tried both ways I got:
solution is x= -2<span />
Answer:
n-5=6
Step-by-step explanation:
five less than a number is represented by n-5 and then it is equal to 6
Answer:
<u>The three equations:</u>
- y = 15x, wolf
- y = 10x + 15, you
- y = 5x + 20, friend
<u>Compare the equations with wolf and you and with wolf and your friend:</u>
- 15x = 10x + 15
- 5x = 15
- x = 3 seconds
It will take 3 seconds before you are caught by the wolf
- 15x = 5x + 20
- 10x = 20
- x = 2 seconds
It will take 2 seconds before your friend is caught by the wolf, he will be caught a second before you.
