Answer: There are 5 grasshoppers, 15 crickets and 20 ladybugs
Step-by-step explanation:
The question in english is:
Jose has found several insects. There are 10 less grasshoppers than crickets. There are 5 less crickets than ladybugs. If Jose has found 5 grasshoppers, how many ladybugs did he find and how many crickets? Write two equations to solve the problem.
Let's tag grasshoppers with 
, crickets with 
and ladybugs with .
So, we are tolde there are 10 less grasshoppers than crickets:
(1) We have the first equation
Then, we are told there are 5 less crickets than ladybugs:
(2) This is the second equation
If 
and we substitute this in both equations we will have:
(3)
Isolating :
(4) There are 15 crickets
Substituting (4) in (2):
(5)
Isolating 
:
There are 20 ladybugs
Therefore:
There are 15 crickets and 20 ladybugs
Perimeter = 18 = 8 + 2x + 3x
10 = 5x
x = 2
So the sides are 8, 4 and 6
Answer:
hi! so we have 2 points right? you will need to use something called the slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1 we're subtracting our y values of both points and x values of both points while dividing them this gives us a slope of a line
now I want you to label before you do this in your head! it can get confusing to think about it so label label (x1-1,y1 4) (x2 14,y2 -2) now you have them labeled this parts easy! use the formula -2-4/14--1 okay now use your calculator you get -2/5 and now you have your m or slope!
memorize y2-y1/x2-x1 now! it will save you!

Answer:
b = 5√6
c = 10√5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a 30-60-90 triangle
the hypotenuse is always twice the short leg
c = 2(5√2)
c = 10√5
The long leg is alway √3 times the short leg
b = √3(5√2)
b = 5√6
Answer:100
Step-by-step explanation: The question asks us to round the given numbers to the nearest hundred. 295 rounded to the nearest hundred is 300 and 198 rounded to the nearest hundred is 200. 300-200 is 100, so they need to sell 100 more tickets for the show to be houseful.
