Answer:
Gianna ran 40 miles over the course of 17 weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
20 miles in the first week.
5% increase each week.
17 weeks.
1 mile increase each week.
17 mile increase over the course of 17 weeks.
37 miles over the course of 17 weeks.
Round 37 to the nearest whole number.
Answer: m = 4
Step-by-step explanation: This is a linear equation.
Linear equations can be written in the form y = mx + b where
the multiplier, m, represents the slope of the line and the <em>b</em>
or the constant term represents the y-intercept of the line.
So the slope of this line is simply the multiplier
which is the coefficient of the x term which is 4.
The variable that's used to represent slope is <em>m</em>.
So we say that m = 4.
X = shorter piece
y = longer piece = 5x
shorter piece + longer piece = 60
x + 5x = 60
6x = 60
x = 60/6
x = 10 in. <== shorter piece
y = 5x
y = 5(10)
y = 50 in. <== longer piece
18??
two times as old.
36 divided but 2 is 18
Answer:
x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, we first need to combine like terms:
Simplify further:
Divide by -12 on both sides to get:
To check the solution, plug x back into the original equation and check if we get the correct answer:
Thus, it checks out and our answer is correct.
