1. solve for X and y using both equations to find the point they cross in
−x − y = −5
y = x + 1
Plug in y into first equation
-x-(x+1)=-5
-x-x-1=-5
-2x-1=-5
+1 both sides
-2x=-4
÷-2 both sides
x=2 solve for y
y=2+1
y=3
(2,3)
2. you can set them equal to each other so 2x+4=3x+1
Answer:
x = 10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that ZP = PX (its the midpoint of the rectangle)
11 = PX
ZP + PX = ZX
11+11 = ZX
22 = ZK
2x + 1 = 22
2x = 22 -1
2x = 21
x = 21/2
x = 10.5
Complete question :
Hayley is buying herbs. She wants to buy 5/6 ounce of basil. The scale she is using to weigh the basil displays the weight as a decimal. How will she know when the display on the scale is correct to the tenths place? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain the fractional expression of weight in decimal form:
5/ 6 ounce of bassil is converted into decimal :
5 / 6 = 0.8333
Hence, for a fraction of 5 /6, we obtain;
5/6 = 0.8333
To the nearest tenth :
0.8
so to find 15% of 54,237, we use this equation: (x/54237) = (15/100) where x is the amount of income tax.
cross multiply: 100x = 813555
divide each side by 100 to isolate x: 8135.55
the truck driver will pay $8135.55
These are all negative SO the number that is the greatest would be -.480.
