Mathematics
1 answer:
Andre45 [30]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D, (1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

It all comes down to substitution. In this case the coefficient of x is 3 and the coefficient of y is 4. The format of these coordinates being (x,y).

1. Plug in your x value (1 in this circumstance) and solve:

3(1) + 4y < 12

3 + 4y < 12

2. Plug in your y value (2 in this circumstance) and solve:

3 + 4(2) < 12

3 + 8 < 12

3. Solve

3 + 8 = 11

11 < 12

Solve p=10a+3b for a
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

a = (p - 3b)/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

p = 10a + 3b

First, subtract 3b from both sides.

p (-3b) = 10a + 3b (-3b)

p - 3b = 10a

Next, isolate the a. Divide 10 from both sides.

(p - 3b)/10 = (10a)/10

(p - 3b)/10 = a

a = (p - 3b)/10 is your answer.

The second of two numbers is 8 less than twice the first number, what are the two numbers?
Mashutka [201]
So the two numbers can be represented as x and y

so x is first and y is second

y=2(x)-8

so y=2x-8


IF THEY ARE CONSECUTIVE
If they are consecutive numbers then 
x+1=y
subtitute
x+1=2x-8 
subtract x from both sides
1=x-8
add 8 to both sides and get
9=x
put it into the equation and get
y=2(9)-8
y=18-8
y=10
so x=9
y=10 
IF X AND Y ARE CONSECUTIVE INTEGERS (1,2,3,4 not 2.3 or 1,3,5,8)

Caleb wants to rent a kayak. Kayak rentals cost $14.50 for half an hour. If Caleb rents a kayak for a hour and forty-five minute
butalik [34]
14.50 x 2 (2 1/2 hours = 1 hour) = $29.00 + $14.50 (for another 1/2 an hour) = $43.50. Then, divide 14.50 in half for the other 15 minutes that weren't accounted for yet, so: $14.50/2 = $7.25 then add it to our previous total: $43.50 + $7.25 = $50.75 is your answer :) Hope I helped
