Answer:
3x - y = 0; 2x - y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the present age of Hans and y be the present age of Grace,
Since, in present Grace is three times as old as Hans,
⇒ y = 3x
⇒ 3x - y = 0
Now, after 5 years,
The age of Hans = x + 5,
And, the age of Grace = y + 5
Also, in 5 years Grace will be twice as old as Hans is then,
⇒ y + 5 = 2 ( x + 5 )
⇒ y + 5 = 2x + 10
⇒ 2x - y = -5
Hence, the required system of linear equations is,
3x - y = 0; 2x - y = -5
X represent the number of laps Marcy swam, 114x represent the number of times Toni swam.
20 + 0.80(114x) + 15 + 0.85x = 257
20 + 91.2x + 15 + 0.85x = 257
92.05x + 35 = 257
Required equation is 92.05x + 35 = 257
Answer:
-3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the integer:
2x^2 - 18 = 9x
2x^2 - 9x - 18 = 0
Now either factor that or use the quadratic formula if you're lazy like me.
x = -3/2 and 6, so x must be 6 because it has to be an integer.
