Answer:
(5, 4) is correct.
First comes x, which is horizontal on the graph
Then comes y, which is vertical.
Answer:
3 tents hold 2 campers
Step-by-step explanation:
The given relations can be expressed as a single equation in the number of 2-camper tents.
__
Let x represent the number of 2-camper tents. Then the number of 4-camper tents is 6-x, and the total number of campers in tents is ...
2x +4(6 -x) = 18
-2x +24 = 18
-2x = -6 . . . . . . subtract 24
x = 3 . . . . . . . divide by -2
Exactly 3 tents hold 2 campers.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The other 3 tents hold 4 campers.
Another way to consider this is to assume that all tents hold 2 campers, and then realize there are 18 -6×2 = 6 campers left over. If these are placed 2 per tent, then there will be 6/2 = 3 tents with 4 campers. The remaining 3 tents will have 2 campers.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
-5/8 divided by -3/4 is the same as -5/8 multiplied by -4/3. Multiply the tops to get 20. Multiply the bottoms to get 24. A negative over a negative is positive and you end up with 20/24! :)
11(x+10) = 132
Distributive property
11x + 110 = 132
Now isolate the variable.
11x + 110 = 132
-110 -110
132 - 110 = 22
11x = 22
11x/11 = 22/11
x= 2
Answer: x = 2
