The two dinosaurs probably crossed paths at estimated coordinates (- 1, 2.5).
To find where the two equations actually intersect, set them equal to each other.
- 1/2x + 3 = 2x + 4
Subtract 4 from both sides, and add 1/2x to both sides to combine like terms.
2 1/2x = - 1 --> 5/2x = - 1
Multiply by 2/5 on both sides to isolate x
x = - 1(2/5)
x = - 2/5
Now plug in to either of the two equations. I used 2x + 4
- 1/2(- 2/5) + 3 = y
1/5 + 3 = y
y = 3 1/5
The actual coordinates where the dinosaurs crossed paths was (- 2/5, 3 and 1/5).
My original estimate was (- 1, 2 1/2) because based on the graph drawn above the point of interest (the intersection) appears to be below the third unit on the y-axis as well as in between the negative two unit and origin on the x-axis. My estimate was also off because the x-axis is counting by twos which does not necessarily allow for an accurate estimate strictly based on the naked eye.
Answer:
39
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you want to find the variable x all you have to do is simple subtraction.
The two numbers (61 and 22). Subtract those numbers and you get 39. Now it wants you to round to the jearest hundredth but there is no hundreds place so we can round to the nearest tenth. Which would be 30! Hope it helped... :)!

Answer:
A is correct.
Explanation:
Given: (7,5) where (x, y)
Identify:
x = 7
y = 5
<u>Go 7 units through x-axis, then move up 5 units along the y-axis.</u>
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x Have the same variable. Therefore they both have like terms
The answer is 447 because you got to add 35 plus 410
