One number is three less than a second number. Six times the first is 6 more than 3 times the second. Find the numbers.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Karolina [17]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

x = y - 3

Also,

6(y - 3) = 3y + 6

6y - 18 = 3y + 6

6y - 3y = 6 + 18

3y = 24

y = 24/3

y = 8

x = 8 - 3

x = 5

Therefore, the first number is 5 and the second number is 8.

U = U' + A + B + AandB
Substituting,
8500 = 5140 + 2450+1980- AandB
AandB = 1070 subscribers

Why can you use the constant of proportionality with any representation?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

  1. The number k is called the constant of proportionality. One important way of thinking about this constant k is that it tells us how much y increases by if we increase x by exactly 1. to express that y is directly proportional to x.

kati45 [8]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

(3x^2-5x+6)+(9-8x-4x^2)

Combine like terms:

=(3x^2-4x^2)+(-5x-8x)+(6+9)

Add or subtract:

=(-1x^2)+(-13x)+(15)

Simplify:

=-x^2-13x+15

Our answer is D

Jack and Jim sign up with an online music store. Jack chooses 15 downloads for $19.75, and Jim chooses 40 downloads for $43.50.
lina2011 [118]
The answer would be A. <span>The registration fee is $5.50, and the cost per download is $0.95.</span>

Solution
Let x = registration fee
y = cost/downloads

Jack
15y + x = 19.75 ; x = 19.75 - 15y
Jim
40y + x = 43.50

Thus,
40y + x = 43.50
40y + <span>19.75 - 15y = 43.50
</span>25y = 23.75
y= 0.95

for x,
<span>x = 19.75 - 15y</span>
x = 19.75 - 15( 0.95)
x= 19.75 -14.25
x = 5.5
