Answer:

Lindsey owns  12 books

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3x:Lindsay

x:Destiny

1/4x: Henry

1/3x+1/4x+x=57

4/12x+3/12x+x=57

7/12x+x=57

19/12x=57

x=57*12/19

x=36

1/3x=36/3

1/3x=12

The opposite process rule says to solve for ________. a known variable by replicating the process used to form the original equa
ioda

Answer:

An unknown variable by reversing the process used to form the original equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite process rule says to solve for - an unknown variable by reversing the process used to form the original equation.

If an equation indicates an operation such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, solve for the unknown variable by using the opposite process.

For example:

Lets say we have to find x+25=35

Here 25 is subtracted from both sides of the equation to isolate x.

x+25-25=35-25

we get x = 10

Check this : 10+25=35

HELP!!! TIMED ASSIGNMENT!!!!! PLEASE HELP
eduard

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part of the function, f(x) = -2x (for x < -1), is only graphed correctly in the first and third graphs.

The second part of the function, f(x) = -1 (for -1 ≤ x < 2) is only graphed correctly in the first graph, which also correctly graphs the third part of the function,

The appropriate choice is the first graph.

3y - 5z = -23
leonid [27]
Starting off, we can multiply the third equation by 2 and add it to the third to get rid of both the x and y variables. Next, we get z=1. Plugging that into 3y-5z=-23, we get 3y-5=-23. Adding 5 to both sides, we get 3y=-18. After that, we can divide both sides by 3 to get y=-6. Plugging that into -2x-y-z=-3, we get -2x+6-1=-3=-2x+5. Subtracting 5x from both sides, we get -2x=-8. After that, we can divide both sides by -2 to get x=4.

Name the property of real numbers illustrated by the equation.
Julli [10]

Answer:

Distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property states a(b+c)=a*b+a*c. This property states that when you multiply more than one thing, you must be sure to multiply everything. When you order fast food combos, you do the distribution property to receive the correct order.

If I order 3 Happy Meals, then I will receive

3(hamburgers +fries + drinks +toys)

3 hamburgers+3 fries+3 drinks+3 toys.

If I don't, then I have broken the distribution property.
