Part B: how much time does ted spend on practicing the breast stroke every day?

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

butterfly = x minutes

breast = y minutes

total is 50 minutes

breast stroke = butterfly +20

Part A

x+y = 50

y = x+20

Part B

Substitute the second equation into the first

x+ (x+20) = 50

2x+20 = 50

2x+20-20 = 50-20

2x = 30

2x/2 = 30/2

x = 15

y = x+20

y = 20+15

y = 35 minutes

35 minutes on the breast stroke

Part C

45 minutes on the butterfly is not reasonable

We only have a total of 50 minutes

50-45 = 5

But he spend more time on the breast stroke ( 20 minutes more), but if he spend 45 minutes on the butterfly, he would have to spend less on the breast stroke.

3, 8, 13, 18, 23, 28, 33, 38
algol [13]

The given series is

3,8,13,18,23,28,33,38,...

Where the first term, a , is 3.

And the difference is constant, that is

8-3=13-8=18-13=5

So the constant difference, d is 3.

Since the difference is constant, so the given series is arthmetic.

And for explicit rule, we use the formula of nth term, which is

a_{n}= a+(n-1)d

Substituting the values of a and d, we will get

a_{n} = 3+(n-1)5
\\
a_{n} = 3+5n-5
\\
a_{n} = 5n -2

Recursive rule is used to tell us the relationship between previous and current term. And the required rule is

a_{n} = a_{n-1} +5 , a_{1} = 3

Solve using substitution, 5x+y=9 10x-7y=-18
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 9      re-arrange  to    y = 9-5x  

   use this value of 'y' in the second equation:

    10x - 7(9-5x) = - 18

       solve for x = 1

  sub in this value of 'x' into one of the equations to compute 'y'

5 (1) + y = 9

  y = 4
