Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get all the s on the same side

add 1/2s to both sides

$150 = 120 + \frac{3}{4}s$

Next, subtract 120 from both sides to get s by itself

$30 = \frac{3}{4}s$

Now, multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the fraction

120 = 3s

Lastly, divide both sides by 3 to get s by itself

s = 40

Answer:

s=40

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine s and 1/2.

150−s/2=120+1/4s

Combine 1/4and s.

150−s/2=120+s/4

Move all terms containing s to the left side of the equation.

150−3s/4=120

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

−3s/4=−30

Multiply both sides of the equation by −4/3.

−4/3 x (−3s/4)=−4/3 x−30 => S=40

What is the solution to this system of equations?

laiz [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving by elimination and substitution:

x + y = 7

x − y = − 3

on adding the two equations

y gets cancelled

x + y = 7

x − y = − 3

2 x = 4

x = 4 2 = 2

substituting this value of x

in equation 1:

x +y = 7

2 + y = 7

y = 7 − 2

y = 5

the solution for the system of equations are :

x = 2

y = 5

A delivery truck drives three routes in one day. The first route is 1223 miles long, the second route is 1034 miles long, and th

avanturin [10]

Answer:

$Total = 38\frac{11}{12}\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$First\ Route = 12\frac{2}{3}\ miles$

$Second\ Route = 10\frac{3}{4}\ miles$

$Third\ Route = 15\frac{1}{2}\ miles$

Required

Determine the total miles

$Total = First\ Route + Second\ Route + Third\ Route$

$Total = 12\frac{2}{3} + 10\frac{3}{4} + 15\frac{1}{2}$

Convert to improper fractions

$Total = \frac{38}{3} + \frac{43}{4} + \frac{31}{2}$

Take LCM

$Total = \frac{152 + 129 + 186}{12}$

$Total = \frac{467}{12}$

$Total = 38\frac{11}{12}\ miles$
