Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number be represented by x

Let the smaller number be represented by y

from the question, the next equations can be gotten :

x - y = 9  equation 1

x = 1 + 2y equation 2

Substitute for x in equation 1

1 + 2y - y = 9

1 + y = 9

Collect like terms

y = 9 - 1

y = 8

Substitute for y in equation 1 and solve for x (the larger number)

x - 8 = 9

x = 9 + 8

x = 17

A cellphone service provider charges $5.00 per month and $0.20 per minute per call. If a customer's current bill is $55, how man
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

250 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cell phone charges for a month = $ 5.00,

Additional charges per minute = $0.20,

Let the cell phone is used for x minutes for a month such that the total bill is $ 55,

⇒ Cell phone charge for the month + additional charges for x minutes = $ 55

⇒ 5.00 + 0.20x = 55

Subtracting 5 on both sides,

0.20x = 50

x = 250,

Hence, the cell phone is used for 250 minutes.

Third option is correct.

Why does the equation 35-5x+6x-36=-24-17x+17x+24 have one solution
seropon [69]
If it has only one solution that means that there is only one value of x that will fulfill this equation
35 - 5x + 6x - 36 = -24 - 17x + 17x + 24
-5x + 6x - 36 = -24 -17x + 17x + 24 - 35
x - 36 = -24 + 24 - 35 (I just canceled out the 17x because it would have justy made the process longer if I moved them over)
x = -24 + 24 - 35 + 36
x = -35 + 36
x = 1

Find the value of X
vredina [299]

Answer:

x=8

RPS = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

QPS = 180

The two angles that form QPS

QPR + RPS = 180

7x+88 + 3x+12 = 180

Combine like terms

10x+100 =180

Subtract 100 from each side

10x = 180-100

10x = 80

Divide by 10

x =80/10

x = 8

RPS = 3x+12

        = 3(8)+12

         24+12

        36
