Answer:

14x+23 =65 x=3CDs

Step-by-step explanation:

So for any question where you need to write your own equation, it is first necessary that you determine what each number in the problem means in order to determine where they should go. James has $65 so the equation needs to be set equal to 65. The problem says he wants to buy a DVD for $23 so that would be a constant $23 spent regardsless of how many CDs he buys. We are trying to use the equation to determine how many CDs James can buy so the number of CDs is the x value at $14 each which would be 14x in the equation. so the equation would be the 14x for the unknown number of CDs, plus 23 for the constant DVD that James would buy set equal to the $65 he can use to buy everything.

To solve the equation, you must now isolate for x. To start, cancel out the +23 on the left side by subtracting 23 from both sides. This will leave 14x=42. You must then cancel the 14 by dividing both sides by 14 leaving your answer of x=3CDs.

I hope this helps.

1: Create a single variable linear equation that has no solution. Solve the equation algebraically to prove that it does not hav
OLga [1]

Answer:

(1) y=C, C\neq0

(2) x=C

(1) y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

For the linear equation, the power on the solitary variable must be 1.

When the graph of a function crosses/ touches the x-axis than the equation has solution/solutions otherwise it does not has a solution.

When it touches/cresses the x-axis for infinite times then it will have an infinite number of solutions.

(1) The linear equation y-C=0, where y is a variable and C is a non-zero constant,  C \neq 0, has the graph parallel to the x-axis. It has no solution as the graph will never cross/touch the x-axis.

Algebraically, in linear equation y-C=0, is independent of x, so there is no value of x for the solution to be exist.

(2) The linear equation x-C=0, where x is a variable and C is a constant, has one solution.

The solution for the equation is

x-C=0

\Rightarrow x=C, where C\neq0.

(3) The linear equation y=0, where y is a variable, has the graph coinciding with the x-axis. So, it has infinitely many solutions.

Algebraically, in linear equation y=0, is independent of x, so for all value of x, the given equation is zero. Hence, there are infinitely many solutions.

A hiker climbs a 5-mile trail up a mountain in 2 hours. On the return trip downhill, she walks the same trail and returns to her
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

3.33 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance traveled by the hiker is 5 * 2 = 10 miles, and the total time travelled is 2 + 1 = 3 hours.

So, to find the average speed of the entire trip, we can use the formula:

distance = speed * time

With distance = 10 and time = 3, we have:

10 = speed * 3

speed = 10/3 = 3.33 miles per hour.

I'm pretty sure this is Triangle stuff, with Sin, Cos + Tan, etc.

I can't remember it all I'm afraid, but the angle will be the 1 degree, 10 minutes - the Hypotenuse side will be the 3.5 km
