Answer:
step 2; a negative times a negative = a positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(6-b)=4
<u>-24 </u><u>+</u><u>4b=4</u>
4b=28
b=7
Answer:
x=-4 and y=10
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the second equation to make y=x+6
sub y=x+6 into the first equation
-x-2*(x+6)=0
-x-2x-12=0
-3x-12=0
3x=-12
x=-4
Now sub x=-4 into the second equation
-(-4)+y=6
y=6+4
y=10
Answer:
Mr.Smith paid $29.4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr.Smith paid $24.5 plus additional 20% of $24.5, and to figure out the total amount that he paid, we need to know what is 20% of $24.50.
20% of $24.50 is:
.
Mr.Smith paid additional $4.9; therefore, the total amount he paid was
$24.5 + $4.9 = $29.4.
Mr. smith paid $29.4.
Answer:
53 1/3 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
average speed = (total distance)/(total time)
average speed = distance/time
time * average speed = distance
time = distance/(average speed)
250 km at 75 km/h
distance = 250 km
time = (250 km)/(75 km/h) = 3.33333... hours
350 km at 70 km/h
distance = 350 km
time = (350 km)/(70 km/h) = 5 hours
200 km at 30 km/h
distance = 200 km
time = (200 km)/(30 km/h) = 6.6666... hour
total distance = 250 km + 350 km + 200 km = 800 km
total time = 3.33333... hours + 5 hours + 6.66666... hours = 15 hours
average speed = (total distance)/(total time)
average speed = (800 km)/(15 hours)
average speed = 53 1/3 km/h
The greatest common factor of this can be solved by looking at the individual parts and splitting it up.
First, we have 28 and 7. Well, thats an easy one. 7 goes into 28 4 times so we are now left with 4 and 1.
We can also write the rest of this like this 4(x*x*y) - 1(x*y*y*y*y*y)
Now, what values are in both equations. We have one x and one y that can be taken out of both.
We end up with 7xy(4x-7y^4)
