-2x+14 is the same as 14 - 2x
Let's say you started off with $14. If you want to buy a soda worth $2, then you have 14-2 = 12 dollars left. If you buy two sodas, then you spend 2*2 = 4 dollars with 14-4 = 10 dollars left.
In general, buying x sodas will cost you 2*x dollars and you have 14 - 2x dollars left over. The x is simply a placeholder for a whole number. For example, if x = 3, then...
14 - 2x = 14 - 2*3 = 14 - 6 = 8
meaning buying 3 sodas cost you $6 and you have $8 left over.
If y is the amount left over, then we can say y = 14 - 2x which is equivalent to y = -2x+14
note: graphing this equation will go through the two points (0,14) and (7,0) as shown in the image below. A graph is handy to help see various points on the line. Each point represents the amount of sodas you can buy (x) and the amount left over in your pocket (y). Keep in mind that neither x nor y can be negative, so it only makes sense to restrict the graph.
If a shape is a square, this mean that each side has the same length. This means that each side of the square has a length of 17cm. Perimeter is the length of the outer boundary of a shape or the summation (addition) of all the sides. This means that the perimeter of this square is 17+17+17+17 or 17×4 which is equal to 68cm.
I hope this helps!
True by side angle side. You already have 2 congruent sides, so then do right angles congruence theorem to get the angles are congruent
Use algebra to set up 2 equations.
Assign c as number of tickets for CATS and w for number of tickets of WICKED
c + w = 2700
c / w = 7 / 11
Then solve for one of them in the first equation
c = 2700 - w
Then put this value for c into the 2nd equation
(2700 - w) / w = 7 / 11
Now cross multiply the numerator by denominator of both numerator and denominator pairs
7w = 11 x (2700 - w)
7w = 29700 - 11w
Now solve for w
7w = 26700 - 11w
Add +11w to both sides
18w = 29700
Now divide by 18 on both sides
w = 1650
Then c is the remainder of that ... 2700 - 1650 = 1050
You can also check because 7 / 11 = 1050 / 1650
Answer:
5 x 1/3 = 5/3 or 1 2/3
