The answer to the problem is A) 20 feet below sea level
Answer:
X=10
X=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+1)*(x-3)=77
x²-3x+x-3=77
x²-2x-3=77
x²-2x-3-77=0
x²-2x-80=0
(x-10)*(x+8)=0
x-10 = 0
x=10
x+8=0
X=-8
Answer:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Billie's age = x
Tony's age = y
Twice Billie’s age decreased by 3 is Tony’s age.
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
Tony is fourteen years older than Billie.
x = y - 14
We substitute y - 14 for x in Equation 1
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
y = 2(y - 14) - 3
y = 2y - 28 - 3
y - 2y = -28 - 3
-y = -31
y = 31 years
Solving for x
x = y - 14
x = 31 - 14
x = 17 years.
Therefore:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
First you get both distances
9.3 x 107 = 995.1 miles
8.87 x 108 = 957.96 miles
then you subtract them both
995.1 - 957.96 = 37.14 miles
and 37.14 miles is the distance between Earth and Saturn.
It's just 24.53 because the hundredth place is the 3, but the value after it is not high enough to round it up. Therefore, the answer is 24.53
