Let x and y represent the smaller and larger numbers, respectively.
y - x = 5 . . . . . the difference is 5
3y = 4x + 6 . . 3 times the larger is 4 times the smaller plus 6
Add x to the first equation to get an expression for y.
y = x + 5
Use that in the second equation.
3(x + 5) = 4x + 6
3x + 15 = 4x + 6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
9 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -3x-6
y = x+5 = 14
smaller number: 9
larger number: 14
Answer:
I think its 18, because if there's 2 boys to 1 girl then if there's 18 girls then there is an equivalent 18 boys to match, plus another 18, which would put the ratio of boy to girl at 2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
it false because its |-6|=6 and |6|= 6
hopefully its helpful and correct
have a great day
A reflection over the x-axis only change the signal of the coordinate y of the point. Hence, the coordinates of vertex B' are:
.
Answer:
(-4, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 8y = 20; y = 5x + 19
y = 5x + 19; -3x - 8y = 20
y = 5x + 19
-3x - 8y = 20
-3x - 8(5x + 19) = 20
-43x - 152 = 20
-43x - 152 + 152 = 20 + 152
-43x = 172
-43x / -43 = 172 / -43
x = -4
y = 5x + 19
y = (5)(-4) + 19
y = -1
