Alexa pays 7/20 of a dollar for each minute she uses her pay-as-you-go phone for a call, and 2/5 of a dollar for each minute of
9966 [12]

Answer:

  • The system of equations is x + y = 85 and 7/20x+2/5y=31
  • To eliminate the x-variable from the equations, you can multiply the equation with the fractions by 20 and multiply the other equation by -7.
  • B-She used 60 minutes for calling and 25 minutes for data.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is always a good idea to start by defining variables in such a problem. Here, we can let x represent the number of calling minutes, and y represent the number of data minutes. The the total number of minutes used is ...

  x + y = 85

The total of charges is the sum of the products of charge per minute and minutes used:

  7/20x + 2/5y = 31.00

We can eliminate the x-variable in these equations by multiplying the first by -7 and the second by 20, then adding the result.

  -7(x +y) +20(7/20x +2/5y) = -7(85) +20(31)

  -7x -7y +7x +8y = -595 +620 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = 25 . . . . . . . . simplify

Then the value of x is

  x = 85 -y = 85 -25

  x = 60

During the 2017 Major League Baseball season the Cleveland Indians played 162 games. They won 42 games more than they lost. What
DaniilM [7]

Answer: The team's win-loss record that year is 1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

During the 2017 Major League Baseball season the Cleveland Indians played 162 games.

Let x = the number of games that the

Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season.

This means that the number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season would be x + 42.

Total number of games played = sum of games won + sum of games lost. This is expressed as

162 = x + 42 + x

2x + 42 = 162

2x = 162-42 = 120

x = 120/2 = 60

Number of games that the Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60

The number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60 + 42 = 102

The team's win-loss record that year

would be wins/loses

= 102/60 = 1.7
