Answer:
2b + 4 = 22
b= 9, the cost of each game is $9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
First number is -2.5
Second number 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2.
To represent this statement, 4x -3y =2
Two times the first number increased by three times the second is 10.
To represent thsi statement, 2x+ 3y = 10
4x - 3y = 2
2x + 3y =10
4x - 2x = 2x
2x = -5
x= -2.5
The first number is -2.5
By using Substitution
2x + 3y = 10
2(-2.5) + 3y = 10
-5 + 3y = 10
3y = 10 +5
3y =15
y = 5
The second number is 5
....To check my answer
-5 + 15 = 10
Substitute -3 to x
(-3)^2 + 4(-3) + 1
9 - 12 + 1
= -2
The everyone of two longer parts has 57 cm length and the shortest part has 42 cm length.
less 30cm from 156 and divide the remain amount of 126 into three parts. The answer will be 42 cm, then add 15,15 in longer parts.
Given:
4:x::x:16
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
We have,
4:x::x:16
It means, we have
4:x = x:16
It can be rewritten as

On cross multiplication, we get


Taking square root on both sides.


Since ratio can be negative or positive, therefore, the value of x is either -8 or 8.
