Answer:

  (x, y) = (5, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the second equation to substitute for y in the first.

  x = 17 -4(x -2)

  5x = 25 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 4x

  x = 5

  y = 5 -2 = 3

The solution is (x, y) = (5, 3).

ivolga24 [154]

Let us suppose, we pour x glass of water.

The given jug is of 6 liters. And the glass of water was seven- eighths of a liter. Hence, we have the below equation

\frac{7}{8} x= 6

Now, in order to solve for x, we will divide 6 with 7/8. So, we have to divide.

x=\frac{6}{7/8} \\
\\
x=\frac{48}{7} \\
\\
x=6.9

Hence, we can pour 7 glass of water. But the 7th glass is not full of water. It is partially full.

What’s the expression
aev [14]

Answer: 5 + j/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing the fare equally

Since they shared the j fare evenly among 3 people, you would divide the j fare by 3 to get j/3

So each person, including Angela, paid j/3 dollars before the tip

Adding the tip

Angela then added 5 dollars to this j/3 so the expression would become 5 + j/3

Final Answer

Angela paid $5 + j/3

5+\frac{j}{3}

The median is 28; 16,24,x,48
Nookie1986 [14]
x = 32 

To find the media, you take the middle number. If there is no discrete middle number, take the sum of the two closest to the middle and divide by 2. 

(24 + x)/2 = 28

Multiply by 2 on both sides to get:

24 + x = 56

Subtract 24 from both sides to isolate the variable:

x = 56 - 24
x = 32
