Answer:

x=92 y=23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let them be x and y respectively

so given

x-y=69

and

x/y=4 x=4y

so we can write

x-y=69

4y-y=69 3y=69 y= 69/3 = 23

now y is 23

so putting in any equation will give the value of x

x-23=69 x=92

Since we are asked to find the rate of change from Monday to Wednesday, we are dividing by 2, since Monday is day 1 and Wednesday is day 3. 3 - 1 = 2.

1800 + 500 = 2300 calories consumed Tuesday.

2300 - 100 = 2200 calories Wednesday.

(2200 - 1800)/2 = 400/2 = 200 calories

which of the following is the missing reason? Statements Reasons three halves times x plus 5 equals negative 4 Given 3x + 10 = −

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The missing reason is Subtraction Property of Equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{2}x+5=-4$ ⇒ (Given)

On Solving we get;

Multiplying 2 on both side we get;

$2(\frac{3}{2}x+5)=-4\times2\\\\2\times \frac{3}{2}x+5\times 2=-4\times 2$

$3x+10=-8$ ⇒ (Multiplication Property of Equality)

Now Subtracting Both side by 10 we get;

$3x+10-10=-8-10$

$3x = -18$ ⇒ (Subtraction Property of Equality)

Now Dividing both side by 3 we get;

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-18}{3}$

$x=-6$ ⇒ (Division Property of Equality)

Hence the missing reason is Subtraction Property of Equality.
