its basically the same thing
Answer:
19
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, if it was out of 50, it would be 76%.
So the answer might be 50 questions total, but maybe there was 49 questions total.
I would probably go with 50 questions total.
Answer:
(1/2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, determine y in first equation: 2x+y=5 or y=5-2x
replace value of y determined in first equation (5-2x) into 2nd equation
4x-3(5-2x)=-10
4x-15+6x=10
10x=5
x=1/2
put value of x into either equation to solve for y so
2(1/2)+y=5
1+y=5
y=4
answer: x=1/2, y=4
check answer by substituting x and y into either equation:
4x-3y=-10
4(1/2)-3(4)=-10
2-12=-10
-10=-10
or
2x+y=5
2(1/2)+4=5
1+4=5
5=5
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.
