The bigger of two numbers is four more

Mathematics
1 answer:
Otrada [13]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

X=the smaller

y=the larger

The bigger of two numbers is four more than the smaller, then:

y=x+4

one more than twice the smaller is the same as the larger, then

1+2x=y

We have the following system of equations:

y=x+4

y=2x+1

We solve this system by equal values method:

x+4=2x+1

x-2x=1-4

-x=-3

x=3

We find the value of "y"now:

y=x+4

y=3+4

y=7

the values of x and y are:

x=3

y=7

James and Aaron run cross country. James has already run 6 miles this month and plans to run 3 miles each day over the next seve
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

for James

the initial mile covered= 6miles

the planned number of miles per day= 3miles

let the number of days be x

and the total distance in miles be y

the total distance for the x days day will be

y=6+3x------------1

step two:

for Aaron

the planned number of miles per day= 4miles

let the number of days be x

and the total distance in miles be y

the total distance for the x days day will be

y=4x------------2

The system of equations is

y=6+3x--2

y=4x----2

Step three:

for the number of days that Aaron needs to run to meet up with James, we need to equate the two equations to find x which is the solution

6+3x=4x

6=4x-3x

x=6days

This means that Aaron will have to run at 4mile per day consistently for 6 days to meet up with James

1 mile is 5280 feet, therefore, we have 60 miles, and each mile is 5280 feet, so we multiply 5280 and 60, you get the answer of 316,800 feet.

Tell what part of the circle is shaded​
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Fraction = 1/4, Decimal = 0.25, Percent = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the picture, we can see the circle is divided into four pieces. One of the pieces is shaded. So, since we have one out of four pieces shaded, we would represent this as 1/4 as a fraction. As a decimal, enter 1 divided by 4 into your calculator, and it will give you 0.25. To find a percentage value, take your decimal and multiply it by 100. 0.25*100= 25%
