8.61 to the nearest tenth is 8.6
<span>The sum of two numbers is 48.
a + b = 48
;
If one third of one number is 5 greater than one sixth of another number,
a = b + 5
multiply both sides by 6, cancel the fractions
2a = b + 30
2a - b = 30
</span><span>use elimination to solve this
a + b = 48
2a - b =30
-------------Addition eliminates b, find a
3a = 78
a =
a = 26
then
26 + b = 48
b = 48 - 26
b = 22</span>
Given :
A bike path is 3 miles long. there are distance markers every path one fourth mile to the end of the path.
To Find :
Which number line correctly models this situation and the total number of distance markers.
Solution :
It is given that their are markers every 1/4 part of mile.
So, their are 4 markers per mile.
Numbers of markers in 3 miles long path is :

Therefore, the total number of distance markers in 3 mile path is 12.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
y = -5x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 6 = -5 (x + 1)
distribute -5 (x + 1) by multiplying
y - 6 = -5x - 5
than add 6 to both sides
y = -5x + 1
So I had to reread this about 3 times before it finally clicked, I've never done a problem like this before. An ordered pair is organized like so: (x-coordinate, y-coordinate) Meaning x=4 and y=6. If x=hot dogs and y=drinks then this means that Ben purchased 4 hot dogs and 6 drinks at the game.
Hope this helps!! (:
