Answer:

Mila had $48 initially

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money they had be x

Mila spent $42; what is left would be x-42

Samuel spent $36: what is left would be x-36

So, what Mila had left is half of what Samuel has; that would be;

x-42 = 1/2(x-36)

2(x-42) = x -36

2x-84 = x -36

2x - x = 84 -36

x = $48

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

x=14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Group like terms

2x+8x+7=35

Add similar elements: 2x+8x=10x

10x+7=35

Subtract 7 from both sides:

10x+7−7=35−7

Simplify

10x=28

Divide both sides by 10

10x/10 =28/10

Simplify:

x=14/5

2x-4y=8 and 7x-3y=61 solve by substitution
Ratling [72]

Answer:

(10, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by Substitution

2x − 4y = 8 and 7x − 3y = 61

Solve for x in the first equation.

x = 4 + 2y 7x − 3y = 61

Replace all occurrences of x with 4 + 2y in each e quation.

Replace all occurrences of x in 7x − 3y = 61 with 4 + 2y. 7 (4 + 2y) − 3y = 61

x = 4 + 2y

Simplify 7 (4 + 2y) − 3y.

28 + 11y = 61

x = 4 + 2y

Solve for y in the first equation.

Move all terms not containing y to the right side of the equation.

11y = 33

x = 4 + 2y

 Divide each term by 11 and simplify.

y = 3

x = 4 + 2y

 

Replace all occurrences of y with 3 in each equation.

Replace all occurrences of y in x = 4 + 2y with 3. x = 4 + 2 (3)

y = 3

Simplify 4 + 2 (3).

x = 10

y = 3

The solution to the system is the complete set of ordered pairs that are valid solutions.

(10, 3)

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Point Form:

(10, 3)

Equation Form:

x = 10, y = 3

What expression defines Sn?
frutty [35]

Answer:

Sₙ=3(1/2^n)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that in the given series that each term is being multiplied by 1/2, which is our common ratio. 3/2 is the first term because 3*1/2=3/2, so the expression that defines Sₙ is Sₙ=3(1/2^n)

Help!
andre [41]

Answer:

∠X in the pre-image will be equal to ∠L in the main image

Step-by-step explanation:

△LMN is the result of a reflection of ​ △XYZ which means △LMN is the mirror image​ △XYZ

hence, the left of △XYZ will be equivalent to the right of △LMN and the right of △XYZ will be equivalent to the left of △LMN

Hence, ∠X in the pre-image will be equal to ∠L in the main image
