76/2=38 so half her mothers age is 38. And since Moira is 3 less than the half of her mothers age, Moira is: 38-3=35
Answer: Length: 4, width: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length be x and width be y
Then x=2y-8 and xy=24
Substitute to get 2y-8 * y = 24, so 2y^2-8y=24 or y^2-4y=12, then solve to get y=6 or y=-2. Since width is positive y=6.
Substitute y=6 into xy=24 to get x=4.
Length: 4, width: 6

Answer:
B and C
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure out the average of all of the scores, you add all of the numbers together and then divide by how many numbers there are. The average shows about how well they did. Anne's friends average was 90 and was higher than Joan's friends average which was 75. Then the lowest score was definitely 78. So the answer would be B and C.
Step-by-step explanation:
plug y value :
10=1/2x+8
1/2x=2
x=4
Answer:
39. r = 13.4
40. m = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
39. Given the equation, 
, to solve for r, the following are the correct steps to take to arrive at the solution:
(given)
Add 0.8 to both sides of the equation (addition property of equality)
(this is where the error occurred.)
40. The correct steps to take in solving the equation, 
is as follows:
(given)
Multiply both sides by 3 (multiplication property of equality)
(this is where the error occurred. This is what we should have at this line/step)
(dividing both sides by -1)
