Answer: 491 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Steve had 10 more cards than Jeff

Suppose Jeff has x cards

So, steve has x+10 cards

Steve handover his cards to Jeff

Now, Jeff has x+x+10=2x+10 cards

It must be equal to 992

\Rightarrow 2x+10=992\\\Rightarrow 2x=982\\\Rightarrow x=491\ \text{cards}

Jeff started with 491 cards

The sum of two numbers is 100, the difference between the two numbers is 26. What is the number that is less?
Zepler [3.9K]
The numbers that would be smaller would be the two with the difference of 26.
27-1=26 where as, if you were to use a 1 in each, 99+1= 100. Therefore 27 and 1 (28) is less than 99 and 1 (100).

Write the slope-intercept form of an equation that passes through the given points.<br> (4,1),(8,2)
Talja [164]

Answer:

y = 1/4x or y = 0.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are trying to write an equation with the given points.

To solve this question, we would use the slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

Find the slope by plugging in variables:

2-1/8-4

1/4 = m

The slope would be 1/4

Find the y intercept:

To find the y-intercept, you would need to use the slope you've found and one point, and plug it into the slope-intercept equation:

1 = 1/4(4) + b

Solve:

1 = 1/4(4) + b

1 = 1 + b

Subtract 1 from both sides

0 = b

This means that the y-intercept is 0.

Our equation will be: y = 1/4x

Translate the phrase into a variable expression: twice the sum of a number and 5
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

'Twice the sum of a number and 5' can be translated into variable expression such as:

  • 2(n + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the phrase

<em>Twice the sum of a number and 5</em>

First, let us breakdown the English Phrase

Let the number be = n

The sum of a number 'n' and 5 = n + 5

now, twice the sum of a number and 5 can be determined by multiplying (n+5) with 5.

Thus,

'<em>Twice the sum of a number and 5</em>' can be translated into variable expression such as:

  • 2(n + 5)
