Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
The first marker is labeled 208708; the second (consecutive) one 208709
Discussion:
Call the first mile marker "m". Then
m + (m+1) = 417417 => combine like terms
2m + 1 = 417417 => subtract 1 from both sides
2m = 417416 => divide both sides by 2
m = 417416/2 = 208708
Note: m and (m+1) are consecutive as they immediately follow each other in the set of integers.
Thank you,
MrB
95/100 = 0.95 <== if she missed 5 out of 95, then she got 95 out of 100
Answer:
x = 48 and y = 104
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations are:

From equation 1:

Putting the value of y in equation 2

Now we have to put the value of y in one of the equation to find the value of x
Putting y = 104 in the first equation

Hence,
The solution of the system of equations is x = 48 and y = 104
The value of variable which was assumed for number of hats, is the total number of hats.
Answer:
y = 5x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
5 is the slope so it goes in front of the x and -4 is the y Intercept so it goes last.
