For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: number of pillowcases
y: number of sheets
We now write the system of equations:
2x + 5y = 40
x = 2y
Solving the system we have:
x = 8.9
y = 4.4
Answer:
The maximum number of pillowcases she could have purchased is:
x = 8 (spent less than $ 40)
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
x+x=90
2x=90 ,x=45 ,∆BAD=45
Number 7 is C because all of them are less than 1/2 or 0.50
Answer:
3y + 2 =
Step-by-step explanation:
7y - 4y = 3y
3y and 2 are not like terms, so you can't add any further
Answer:
Speed of the river =
km per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed of the boat in still water = 4 km per hour
Let the speed of the river = v km per hour
Speed of the boat upstream = (4 - v) km per hour
Time taken to cover 6 km = 
=
hours
Speed of the boat downstream = (4 + v) km per hour
Time taken to cover 12 km =
hours
Since, time taken by the boat in both the cases is same,

6(4 + v) = 12(4 - v)
24 + 6v = 48 - 12v
12v + 6v = 48 - 24
18v = 24
v = 
v =
km per hour
