30 POINTS!!! Kent won 25% of the games he played on Saturday. If he lost 12 games on Saturday, and no game ended in a tie, how m

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

He won 4 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of games he lost= 75%

Let the total number of games be $x$

75% of $x$ = 12

$\frac{75x}{100}$ = 12

75 $x$ = 12 x 100

$x$ = $\frac{1200}{75}$

=16

Number of games he won = 16-12

= 4

Ivory says that the equation 2x+2=x+1 has no solution because the left-hand side is double the right-hand side. Is Ivory Correct

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

No, Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We try to solve the equation first.

2x + 2 = x + 1

We want all variables on the left side and all numbers on the right side.

Subtract x from both sides.

x + 2 = 1

Subtract 2 from both sides.

x = -1

Check: Plug in -1 for x on both sides and see if it makes a true statement.

2x + 2 = x + 1

2(-1) + 2 = -1 + 1

-2 + 2 = 0

0 = 0

0 = 0 is a true statement, so the solution x = -1 is the correct solution.

Answer: Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.

Which systems of equations intersect at point A in this graph?

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The point of intersection of the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-2, 1)

The correct system of equations intersect at point A in this graph will be:

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x+9\\ y=-3x-5\end{bmatrix}$

Thus, the second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point

A (-2, 1)

Let us check the system of equations to determine whether it intersect at point A in this graph.

Given the system of equations

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x+9\\ y=-3x-5\end{bmatrix}$

Arrange equation variable for elimination

$\begin{bmatrix}y-4x=9\\ y+3x=-5\end{bmatrix}$

so

$y+3x=-5$

$-$

$\underline{y-4x=9}$

$7x=-14$

so the system of equations becomes

$\begin{bmatrix}y-4x=9\\ 7x=-14\end{bmatrix}$

Solve 7x = -14 for x

$7x=-14$

Divide both sides by 7

$\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{-14}{7}$

Simplify

$x = -2$

For y - 4x = 9 plug in x = 2

$y-4\left(-2\right)=9$

$y+4\cdot \:2=9$

$y+8=9$

Subtract 8 from both sides

$y+8-8=9-8$

Simplify

y = 1

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-2, 1)

From the attached graph, it is also clear that the system of equations intersects at point x = -2, and y = 1.

In other words, the point of intersection of the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-2, 1)

Therefore, the correct system of equations intersect at point A in this graph will be:

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x+9\\ y=-3x-5\end{bmatrix}$

Thus, the second option is correct.
