Total distance covered by <span>George and Carmen
</span>x + y = 350
And they biked 80 kilometers more than they bussed
<span>80 + y = x </span>
Putting the value of x=80 + y in <span>x + y = 350:
</span>We get:
<span>80 + y + y = 350 </span>
<span>2y = 270 </span>
<span>y = 135 km</span>
<span>Substituting y = 135 in x + y = 350 </span>
<span>x + 135 = 350</span>
<span>x = 215 km </span>
Thus George and Carmen biked for 215 km and bussed for 135 km.
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
14/28=x/14
x=7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation y=-2x+1 and given another equation y=mx+b in order for us to have no solution we must guarantee that both lines do not intersect. Recall that m is the slope of the second equation and b the y-intercept. To guarantee that both lines don't intersect, they must be parallel. To have this result, we must have that they have the same slope but different y intercept. That is take m = -2 and b any value different to +1. For example, the b = 6. So
y = -2x+6 = -2(x-3) is another equation that gives no solution to the system.
Answer
7.5 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Since adding x grams of salt will bring th percentage of the salt to 25
Hence. 10% of the 50 gram gives. 5 gram initial salt before it is added.
5+ x/ 50 * 100= 25/
5+x /50 = 0.25
5+x = 12.5
X= 12.5- 5
X= 7.5pounds
