Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cindy is correcy because on "Step 1:"  the multiplication was correctly distributed over the subtraction in paranthesis 5(x-2) = 5*x- 5*2 = 5x-10.

Henry was wrrong because he distributed 5 only over x and not over -2 as well 5(x-2) ≠ 5*x-2

Tickets to a school basketball game cost $4 for students and $7 for adults. At the end of the night, 168 tickets are sold for a
stepan [7]
4s+7a=861
s+a=168

This can be solved using either elimination or substitution. I am going to use substitution.

Solve s+a=168 for s
s=168-a

Replace 168-a for s in 4s+7a=861
4(168-a)+7a=861
672-4a+7a=861

Solve for a
672+3a=861
3a=189
a=63

Substitute 63 for a in s=168-a
s=168-63=105

So, s=105 student tickets and a=63 adult tickets

For which value of a does the following system of equations have no solution? -x+6y=7 , -5x+10ay=32
dlinn [17]

Remark

If the lines are parallel, there are no solutions to the system of equations. Start with the equation you know the most about.

x + 6y = 7                Subtract x from both sides

x - x + 6y = 7 - x      Combine

6y =  - x + 7             Switch and divide by 6

y = -x / 6 + 7/6

The general equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope of the line.

m = - 1/6

================

Now look at the second equation

10ay - 5x = 32               Add 5x to both sides

10ay = 5x + 32              Divide by 10a

y = (5/10a)x + 32/(10a)  

===============

Now you must make

5/10a = - 1/6                     Cross Multiply

5* 6 = - 10a * 1

30 = - 10a                        Divide by - 10

a = 30 / - 10

a = - 3

So these two equations will have no solution when a = - 3

How do i solve -96=-6(1-3b) with the steps
Kay [80]

Answer:

The answer is b= - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-96 = -6 ( 1 - 3b )

-6 ( 1 - 3b ) = -96

\frac{-6(1 - 3b}{-6} = \frac{-96}{-6}

1 - 3b = 16

3b = 16 - 1 = 15

b= 15 : 3 = 5
