Answer:
2. the sum of 2 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
It is the sum of 2 terms because in this expression you are simply just adding.
Answer:
<em><u>x=2, y=4</u></em> (as a point,) (2, 4) (last part is unnecessary unless you are graphing)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use substitution.
Substitute y for 2x.
Since y=2x, you can plug 2x into the place where y goes...
Instead of y=-1/2x+5
2x=-1/2x+5....Now solve
2.5x=5 (Sorry my computer cannot type fractions very clearly)
/2.5 /2.5 (dividing by 2.5 on both sides)
<u><em>x=2</em></u>
Now just plug x into any of the equations to find y (preferably the easier one).
y=2x becomes
y=2*(2)
=4
<em><u>y=4</u></em>
Answer:
Catherine's sister ate 2/15 gallons of the ice cream.
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
be the amount of ice cream that Catherine's sister ate, in gallons.
- Original amount: 1 gallon.

- What's left:
gallons.
Consider the relationship:
.
That is:
.
Add
to both sides of this equation:

Substract
from both sides:
.
Convert the denominator of all three numbers on the left-hand side to 
.
.
In other words, Catherine's sister ate
