Answer:
2x + y = 17
-6x = 3y - 51
Step-by-step explanation:
You get an infinite number of solutions when two equations are really just the same. This means you can convert one into the other simply by multiplying one to get the other.
In the above answer, if you multiply the above by -3 you get:
-6x -3y = -51
which is of course -6x = 3y - 51
So that is an example of a pair that has infinite solutions.
To find all of them, you'd carefully have to compare each 2 and see if there is a multiplier to convert one into the other. You can do that!
Answer:
Dog is 2 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let dog's age = d
Let friend's age = f
Your dog is 8 years younger than your friend:
d +8 = f
In 2 years, your friend will be three times as old as your dog:
3(d+2) = (f+2)
3d+6 = f+2
3d = f - 4
(sub in f=d+8 from above)
3d = f - 4
3d = d+8 - 4
2d = 4
d = 2
Answer:
60 penguins
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find out how many times 9, the number of polar bears for every 20 penguins, was multiplied by, so that we can multiply 20 penguins by the same amount.
27/9 = 3
20*3 = 60
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
When dividing by a fraction flip it over and multiply
2 / (1/3) = 2 * 3/1
2 / (1/3) = 6/1
2 / (1/3) = 6
Answer:
t = 8.9
Step-by-step explanation:
6.35t = 56.515
56.515 / 6.35 = t
t = 8.9
