Answer:
George's mistake would be:
Instead of 2x + 40, she has made - x + 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope - Intercept Form = y = mx + b
y + 20 = 2(x +20)
y + 20 = 2x + 40
- 20 - 20
----------------------
y = 2x + 20
(Should have been the answer)
BUT,
George's Solving:
y + 20 = 2(x + 20)
y + 20 = -x + 20
George's Mistake would be her miscalculation during her 2nd step. Where instead of distributing 2 to (x + 20), she has changed it to -x + 20, when in reality, it should have been 2x + 40.
The best thing to do is to divide the amount she has driven (357.9) by the miles (21)
As you're looking for an estimate, you have to round them.
357.9 rounds to 360
21 rounds to 20
Therefore, you've got to divide them
360/20= 18
Therefore, Ellen has driven approximately 18 miles
Hope this helps :)
With mental math, you can perform equations quickly and efficiently. They also help you to develop your own strategies and solve more complex math equations. Hope this helps;)
Look up on google to find out the answer that’s how I get mine
<span>You have the following inequality given in the problem shown above:
(x^2-1)/(x^2+5x+4)</span>≤<span>0
1. To solve it, you must factor it and then you must make the study of the signs.
