5. rational number
7. opposite of 1/3 is -1/3 and opposite of -7/12 is 7/12
8. absolute value of 9.8 is 9.8 and absolute value of -10/3 is 10/3
5x + y = 9....multiply by 7
10x - 7y = -18
----------------
35x + 7y = 63 (result of multiplying by 7)
10x - 7y = -18
----------------add
45x = 45
x = 45/45
x = 1
5x + y = 9
5(1) + y = 9
5 + y = 9
y = 9 - 5
y = 4
solution is : (1,4)
=========================
-4x + 9y = 9
x - 3y = -6 ....multiply by 4
----------------
-4x + 9y = 9
4x - 12y = -24 (result of multiplying by 4)
---------------add
- 3y = - 15
y = -15/-3
y = 5
x - 3y = -6
x - 3(5) = -6
x - 15 = -6
x = -6 + 15
x = 9
solution is : (9,5)
Answer:
“Oh, the bells, bells, bells!
What a tale their terror tells
Of Despair!
How they clang, and clash, and roar!
What a horror they outpour
On the bosom of the palpitating air!
Yet the ear it fully knows,
By the twanging,
And the clanging,
How the danger ebbs and flows;
Yet the ear distinctly tells,
In the jangling,
And the wrangling.”
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6 lengths
Step-by-step explanation:
You essentially want the smallest integer solution to ...
60x ≥ 350
x ≥ 350/60
x ≥ 5 5/6
The smallest integer solution to this is x = 6.
The minimum number of lengths of hose needed is 6.
_____
Informally, you know that dividing the required total length by the length of one hose will tell you the number of required hoses. You also know the ratio 350/60 is equivalent to 35/6 and that this will be between 5 and 6. (5·6 = 30; 6·6 = 36) The next higher integer value will be 6.
