You plug in 2 for the w and do 17 minus 2 and then you divide that by 3 so ur answer is going to be 17-2 which is 15 and then divide 15 by 3 and you get 5

Got it! Here you go!

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems you already know that you need to do 17-2/3(not two thirds, just over 3.)

The horizontal line means divide, so you will be dividing by 3. First, though,, you do...

17-2(which is 15)

and then divide it by 3.

15/3=5

Your answer is 5.

I hope I helped! Have a great day.

If you were to solve the following system by substitution, what would be the best
xxMikexx [17]
To solve the two equations simultaneously using the substitution method we need to rearrange one of the equation to make either 'x' or 'y' the subject. 

We can try in turn rearranging both equations and see which unknown term would have been easier to solve first

Equation 2x+8y=12

Making 'x' the subject
2x=12-8y , dividing each term by 2
x=6-4y⇒ (Option 1)

Making 'y' the subject
8y=12-2x, multiply each term by 8 gives
y= \frac{12}{8} - \frac{2}{8}x⇒ (Option 2)

Equation 3x-8y=11
Making 'x' the subject
3x=11+8y, divide each term by 3
x= \frac{11}{3}+ \frac{8}{3}y ⇒ (Option 3)

Making 'y' the subject
8y=3x-11, divide each term by 8
y= \frac{3}{8}x- \frac{11}{8} ⇒ (Option 4)

From all the possibilities of rearranged term, the most efficient option would have been the first option, from equation 2x+8y=12 with 'x' as the subject, x=6-4y

Solution to m^2- 36=0
alex41 [277]

Answer:

m=(-6,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

m^2 -36 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-36 + m^2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.

 Add '36' to each side of the equation.

-36 + 36 + m^2 = 0 + 36

Combine like terms: -36 + 36 = 0

0 + m^2 = 0 + 36

m^2 = 0 + 36

Combine like terms: 0 + 36 = 36

m^2 = 36

Simplifying

m^2 = 36

Take the square root of each side:

√m^2=+/-√36

m=(+/-)6

m = {-6, 6}

A pilot can travel for 140 miles with the wind in the same amount of time as 360 miles against the wind. Find the speed of the w
quester [9]

Answer:

  -88 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the relation ...

  time = distance/speed

to compare the times in the two directions.

  \dfrac{140}{200+w}=\dfrac{360}{200-w}\\\\140(200-w)=360(200+w)\\\\200(140-360)=w(360+140)\\\\w=\dfrac{200(-220)}{500}=-88 \quad\text{miles per hour}

The wind speed is -88 miles per hour.

_____

The problem statement tells us the travel is slower <em>with</em> the wind than <em>against</em> the wind. Hence "with the wind" must be subtracting from the net speed. That is, the wind speed is negative.
