Hello,
What we want to do is multiply 1/6 by each value within the parentheses individually.
So, it would be:
(1/6) * (18x) = 3x
(1/6) * (-24) = -4
Together, this would be 3x-4.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
1. y=5 x=8
2. x=9 y=5
3. x=12 z=4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 4(5)+5(8)=60
2. 5(9)+3(5)=60
3. 4(12)+3(4)=60
The factors of 49 are: 1, 7 and 49.
The factors of 50 are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 25 and 50.
The common factor is 1.
Use division or long division (ignore the decimal point)
Then put the decimal in the same spot as the dividend (the number being divided)
Question 1:
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: number of nickels
y: number of dimes
We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem.
We have then:
0.05x + 0.10y = 6.10
x + y = 67
Solving the system we have:
x = 12
y = 55
Answer:
there are 12 nickels
Question 2:
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: Allan's score
y: Dave's score
We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem.
We have then:
x + y = 375
x = 2y-60
Solving the system we have:
x = 230
y = 145
Answer:
Dave: 145 Allan: 230
