-2/5
Step by Step :
18 - 8 = 10
-15 - 10 = -25
10/-25 = -2/5
Answer:
The number of pages that Polina read was 90 and the number of pages that Marcus read was 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> number of pages that Polina read
y ----> number of pages that Marcus read
we know that
x+y=108 ----> equation A
x=5y -----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
Find the value of x
therefore
The number of pages that Polina read was 90 and the number of pages that Marcus read was 18
A two digit number has a tens digit and a ones digit.
Let's say x = tens digit and y = ones digit
"The sum of the digits is 5"
x + y = 5
The next phrase is "the number multiplied by 3 is 42" but we need to represent the number using the digits. So they need to be multiplied first by their place value and added together. [Example: 34 = 3(10) + 4(1)]
The number is: 10x + y
3(10x + y) = 42
The system of equations: (two equations for two unknowns)
x + y = 5
30x + 3y = 42
Then you can use substitution or elimination to combine and solve.
I'll use elimination, multiply the entire top equation by -3 and add the equations together. y will cancel out
-3x - 3y = -15
30x + 3y = 42
------------------
27x + 0 = 27
x = 1
then plug x = 1 into either equation to find y
1 + y = 5
y = 4
remember the x and y represent digits so the number xy is 14
Answer:
answer = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
same slope and different y-intercept would make the two lines parallel. hope this helps <3
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To find the distance between two points, you square the difference of the x-values and square the difference of the y-values, add them, and then you square root it!
First, we'll add our two x-values.
-6-0= -6
We square it, which means to multiply it by itself.
-6(-6)=36 (If you multiply an even number of negative numbers, your answer is positive. Since we have two negative numbers, we get positive 36)
Now, we do the same with the y-values.
-2-(-1)=-1 (two negatives make it a plus, as in minus minus 1 is plus one.)
We square it.
-1(-1)=1
Now, we add these x and y value differences.
36+1=37
Now, we find the square root using a calculator.
√37≈6.08
Have a wonderful day!
