You can subtract the 2x to make it -y=-2x-2 and add the x to make it -2y=x+4. for elimination method multiply the equation (-2)-y=-2x-2. Hope this helps. You can also do substitution method

I NEED AN ANSWER PLEASE :(((

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

80 lemons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of lemons that were on the tree.

We can use this to set up an equation:

$40\%x=32$

Note that percentages can also be written as that number over 100.

$\frac{40}{100}x=32$

Simplify the fraction.

$\frac{2}{5}x=32$

Multiply both sides by 5

$2x=160$

Divide both sides by 2

$x=80$

There were 80 lemons on the tree before he picked the lemons.

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow. Find the area of QRS.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer-

The area of QRS is 238.7 sq units.

Solution-

According to properties of supplementary angles,

$m\angle R+124=180\\\\m\angle Q+132=180$

So,

$\Rightarrow m\angle R=180-124=56,\ m\angle Q=180-132=48$

As the sum of measurement of all the angles in a triangle is 180, so

$\Rightarrow m\angle S+m\angle R+m\angle Q=180$

$\Rightarrow m\angle S=180-m\angle R-m\angle Q$

$\Rightarrow m\angle S=180-56-48=76$

Then the area of the triangle will be,

$\text{Area}=\dfrac{1}{2}qr\sin S$

$=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 21\times 23.43\times \sin 76$

$=238.7\text{sq.units}$

: Ruben put an empty cup underneath a leaking faucet. After 1 1 2 112 hours, Ruben had collected 1 4 14 cup of water. What is th

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The rate is $\frac{1}{6}$ cups per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

It took the faucet 1 1/2 hours equivalent 3/2 hours to fill 1/4 cup by leaking

We need to find the rate in terms of cups that can be filled by water in 1 hour.

Using unitary method:

it takes $\frac{3}{2} h$ for $\frac{1}{4}$ cup

it will take 1 h for how many cups?

$= \frac{1 \times \frac{1}{4} }{\frac{3}{2} }= \frac{2}{4 \times 3}= \frac{2}{12}= \frac{1}{6} cups$

Hence, the rate is $\frac{1}{6}$ cups per hour
