X = mary's shells
g = 1 1/4x + 5
n = 1 1/2x+ 1
g = n
1 1/4x + 5 = 1 1/2x + 1
5/4x + 5 = 3/2x + 1...multiply by common denominator of 4, this will get rid of fractions...however, this is optional...u can work with fractions if u wish.
5x + 20 = 6x + 4
5x - 6x = 4 - 20
-x = - 16
x = 16....so Mary has 16 shells
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form 
or 
we have the points (2,14) and (4,28)
Find out the constant of proportionality k
For (2,14) ----> 
For (4,28) ----> 
so
the value of 
therefore
The equation is
width= 8
Length= 15
(8x15= 120 and 8 is 7 less than 15)
Answer:
MAKE MY ANSWER BRILLINEST PLEASE:)
Step-by-step explanation:
LET:
j = the points that Jessica scored
t = the points that Tina scored
Jessica scored 147 more points than Tina:
j = t + 1497
Together, Bradley and Harner scored 1601 points:
j + t = 1601
by solving the system of equations:
j = t + 147
j + t = 1601
we find
j = 856 points
t = 707 points
Jessica Bradley scored 856 point.
Tina Harner scored 707 points.
Answer:
<em>It has infinitely as many solutions</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations and Identities
When dealing with equations, we must find values of the variable who mak the expression become an identity.
The expression is an identity regardless on what the value of x is, so we can say the equation has infinite as many solutions. For example x=0 will make the expression look like 3=3 which is an identity. If x=8, we'll obtain 27=27 and so on
