Daniel and Audrey are reading the same book. At the beginning of the month, Daniel was on page 49 and Audrey was on page 22. Dan

iel will read 17 pages per day and Audrey will read 20 pages per day. Let D represent the page of the book that Daniel is on at the end of t days into the month, and let A represent the page of the book that Audrey is on at the end of t days into the month. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of t, and determine what page Daniel and Audrey will be on on the day they are both on the same page.

Answer:

9 days

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation for Daniel's situation:

D = 17t + 49

Then, write the equation for Audrey's situation:

A = 20t + 22

Then, set these equations equal to each other and solve for t to find when they will be on the same page:

17t + 49 = 20t + 22

Solve for t:

17t + 49 = 20t + 22

49 = 3t + 22

27 = 3t

9 = t

So, they will be on the same page 9 days into the month.

Y=1/3x + 2 what is the domain?

Trava [24]

Answer:

To find the domains you must graph this equation and find the x-coordinates of the points plotted. That's the domain.

Remember, if two points have the same x-coordinate then do not repeat the number when stating the domain. Domain also always must be written in the least to greatest order. Domains must be written with {} enclosing them.

So if the x-coordinates were 4,5,6,4,7,5

You would write the domain as {4,5,6,7}

What is one of the solutions to the following system of equations?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

(8,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $x^{2} +y^{2} =65$

$x+y=7$

To Find: solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

Equation a : $x^{2} +y^{2} =65$

Equation b : $x+y=7$

Substitute the value of y from equation b in equation a

y from equation b : y = 7-x

Now substitute value of y in equation a

Thus equation a becomes:

$x^{2} +(7-x)^{2} =65$

$x^{2} +49+x^{2}-14x =65$

$2x^{2} -14x =65-49$

$x^{2} -7x -8=0$

$x^{2} -8x+x -8=0$

$x(x-8)+1(x-8)=0$

$(x+1)(x-8)=0$

⇒ x= -1 and x = 8

Now substitute values of x in equation b to obtains values of y

⇒ $x+y=7$

for x = -1

⇒ $-1+y=7$

⇒ $y=7+1$

⇒ $y=8$

Thus (x,y)=(-1,8)

For x =8

⇒ $8+y=7$

⇒ $y=7-8$

⇒ $y=-1$

Thus (x,y)=(8,-1)

Hence Option A is the correct solution .

Sophia scored 92% in a math test. if the test had 50 question how many did she get right

german

Answer: 46

Step-by-step explanation:

percentage scored = 92

number of correct question = x

total number of questions = 50

The formula for calculating the percentage scored

= number of correct question / total number of questions x 100

That is

92 = $\frac{x}{50}$ x $\frac{100}{1}$

$92 = \frac{100x}{50}$

cross multiplying :

$100x = 92$ x $50$

$100x = 4600$

dividing through by 100 , we have

$x = 46$

Therefore, she got 46 questions right
