Answer: Jack has 33 stamps and Dylan has 13 stamps .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of stamps Jack has and the number of stamps Dylan y.

x-y=20----------------(1)\\\\ x+y=46-----------------(2)

Adding equation (1) and (2), we get

2x=66\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{66}{2}=33

From (1), we have

33-y=20\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=33-20=13

Hence, Jack has 33 stamps and Dylan has 13 stamps .

Answer:

The number of Jack's stamps is 33 and Dylan's stamps is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of Jack's stamps

y -----> the number of Dylan's stamps

we know that

x+y=46 ----> equation A

x=y+20 -----> equation B

Solve by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(y+20)+y=46

2y=46-20

2y=26

y=13 stamps

Fond the value of x

x=y+20 -----> x=13+20=33 stamps

therefore

The number of Jack's stamps is 33 and Dylan's stamps is 13

The area of a square carpet tile is 900 square centimeters. What is the length of one edge of the tile in centimeters
satela [25.4K]
Let the side of one edge of tile = a cm.

So area of tile = (side)^2 = a^2
 
But area of tiles = 900 square centimeter.

So a^2 = 900

a =  \sqrt{900}
          = 30

So side of one edge of tile is = 30 cm

The table shows the relationship between the number of minutes Rodney spends practicing playing the piano p, and the number of m
vagabundo [1.1K]

<u>Answer-</u>

The equation that describes the pattern is,

\boxed{\boxed{y=2{x}+30}}

<u>Solution-</u>

P = Number of minutes Rodney spends practicing playing the piano

G = Number of minutes Rodney spends practicing playing the guitar

Taking P on x axis and G on y axis, the points are,

(0,30),(15,60),(30,90),(45,120)

Taking first two points i.e (0,30),(15,60), the line equation will be,

\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-y_1}{y_2-y_1}=\dfrac{x-x_1}{x_2-x_1}

\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-30}{60-30}=\dfrac{x-0}{15-0}

\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-30}{30}=\dfrac{x}{15}

\Rightarrow 15(y-30)=30{x}

\Rightarrow y-30=2{x}

\Rightarrow y=2{x}+30

Putting the other two points i.e (30,90),(45,120) in the equation, they also satisfy the equation. That means they are also on the same line y=2{x}+30.

From the result, it is evident that P and G are linearly related.

If a 25 ft rope is cut into two sections with one section 4 times as long as the other section, how long is the shorter piece?
DaniilM [7]
X = short section of rope
4x = longer section of rope

x + 4x = 25
5x = 25
x = 5

…or in other words the shorter piece of rope is 5 feet long
