Answer:
The main reason it was important to study this group was:
1) If Whitehead had found that many people had drunk water from the Broad Street pump and not caught cholera, that would have been evidence against Snow's hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
But Dr. John Snow was able to convince many councillors who ensured that the pump handle was removed from the Broad Street pump. Within a few days of this removal, the cholera epidemic ended. This step proved that Dr. Snow was right from the beginning. The pump handle was the means that the cholera epidemic was being spread from one person to another within Broad Street area, since many usually fetch water from the pump.
In this problem “like terms” has two groups: one with a number and y, and one with just numbers. First I’ll rewrite the equation with the terms in a different order, grouped with like terms. Then we’ll do the math for them:
7y + 10 + 3y - 4 - 6y
= 7y + 3y - 6y + 10 - 4
= 10y - 6y + 6
= 4y + 6

Answer:
3.803% Profit
Step-by-step explanation:
First let us calculate total sales, then calculate the total cost, and then divide the two.
Sale: 120*1.1=132 and 52*.9=46.8
Cost: 120 and 52
Profit equation:
Simplify:
or 3.803% Profit
Well the answer would be $18.8784 but if you want it to be shorter it would be $18.88 because you multiply 17.48 and 0.08 and get 1.3984 and then you add it to $17.48
Answer:
x = 3 and y = 2
or
(3,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
first equation (LCM = 3 x 4 x 5 = 60)
(x+2)/5 - (9-x)/3 = (y - 6)/4
12(x+2) - 20(9-x) = 15(y - 6)
12x + 24 - 180 + 20x = 15y - 90
32x - 15y = -90 - 24 + 180
32x - 15y = 66
second equation:
8(x + 2) - (2x + y) = 2(x + 13)
8x + 16 - 2x - y = 2x + 26
6x - y + 16 = 2x + 26
4x - y = 10
Now you have 2 equations:
4x - y = 10 ---> y = 4x - 10
32x - 15y = 66
Substitute y = 4x - 10 into 32x - 15y = 66
32x - 15(4x - 10) = 66
32x - 60x + 150 = 66
-28x = -84
x = 3
y = 4(3) - 10
y = 12 - 10
y = 2
Solutions: x = 3 and y = 2
