Answer:
6 is the the distance between the points
Hey there!
Let's set up our expression:
(7a-6b+7)-(8a-2)
In order to simplify, we can use that subtraction sign and distribute it, using the distributive property. We have:
7a-6b+7-8a+2
Notice how it's plus two, because a negative times a negative two is a positive two. Now, it's a matter of finding the like terms and adding or subtracting them. These like terms can either have no variable, or have different coefficients but the same variable. That means our like terms are the 7a and -8a, and the 7 and 2. There's no like term for the 6b. That means we have:
(7a-8a) - 6b + (7+2) =
-a - 6b + 9
Hope this helps!
Answer:
the answer is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- 30 adult tickets,
- 50 kids tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
- Cost of adult ticket = $8.50
- Cost of kids ticket = $7.00
- Number of tickets = 80
- Total cost = $605
Let the adult ticket be a and kids be k
<u>We got equations</u>
- a + k = 80
- 8.5a + 7k = 605
<u>From the first equation we get</u>
<u>Substituting k in the second equation</u>
- 8.5a + 7(80 - a) = 605
- 8.5a - 7a + 560= 605
- 1.5a = 45
- a = 45/1.5
- a = 30
<u>Then finding k</u>
So it took him 4/5 of an hour to paint 1/3
that means there is still 2/3 to go
so that means that he will have two times that time to paint the rest of the room
<u>4/5</u> = <u> ? </u>
1/3 2/3
using cross multiplication
(4/5)(2/3) = (1/3) (?)
8/15 = 1/3 ?
divide both sides by 1/3
so that will be 8/5
that means it will take 8/5 of an hour to complete the rest
or 12/5 total to do entire room
Hope this helps ;)
