So,
We'll just use A to represent both Jan and Mya's miles, since they ran the same number.
We have the equations:
1. Jan (J) = Mya (M)
2. Sara (S) = M - 8
3. 2A + S = 64
J = M
S = M - 8
We'll just use A to represent both J and M.
S = M - 8
We'll use Elimination by Substitution.
2A + A - 8 = 64
Collect Like Terms
3A - 8 = 64
Add 8 to both sides
3A = 72
Divide both sides by 3
A = 24
Since
A = J
and
A = M
and
J = M
then
J = 24
M = 24
Substitute
S = 24 - 8
S = 16
Check
24 + 24 + 16 = 64
64 = 64 This checks.
So,
J = 24
M = 24
S = 16
Answer:
2, -3
Step-by-step explanation:
4 units down is -9, then a reflection over y axis makes -2 2 6 units up makes -9 -3
Your inequality is (x being number of people):
175≥35+10x+3x
First, combine like terms so your new inequality is:
175≥35+13x
Then subtract 35 from both sides which makes it:
140≥13x
then divide 140 by 13 making it:
<span>10.769≥x
</span>But because you can't have .769 of a person the actual answer is 10
then you have to subtract 1 because he isn't including himself and there is the answer!:
9≥x
Let's solve the equation:
9x+27 = 9(x+2)+9 ← Distribute 9 to the x and 2
9x+27 = 9x+18+9 ← Combine like terms
9x+27 = 9x + 27 ← Subtract 27 from both sides
9x = 9x
Infinitely many solutions would be correct because no matter what x is, it will always equal each other the both sides of the equation because it is 9 times x on both sides.
