Answer: 14/15 of a meter
Step-by-step explanation:
5 and 3 LCM is 15.
3/5 x 3 + 1/3 x 5= 9/15 + 5/ 15 = 14/15
Answer:
x^2 + x-72=0
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x+1) =72
Distribute
x^2 +x = 72
Subtract 72 from each side
x^2 +x - 72 = 0
Now this is the equation we can factor
<span>Problem 1: 2x > 4x - 6
2x < 6
x < 3
problem 2: -3r < 10 - r
-2r < 10
r > -5
problem 3: 5c - 4 > 8c + 2
3c < -6
c < -2</span>
#1)
Answer:
x=1 and y=12
Explanation:
y=5x+7
y=2x+10
This system should use substitution because the value of y is given in terms if x.
Substitution:
5x+7=2x+10
Solve:
3x=3
x=1
Substitute x to solve for y by plugging x into one if the original equations(doesn’t matter which one is used).
y=5x+7
y=5(1)+7
y=5+7
y=12
#2)
Answer:
x=-8 and y=2
Explanation:
y=2x+18
9y=-2x+2
This system also uses substitution. The value of y us already given in terms if c in the first equations, so we will substitute in the second equation.
Substitute:
9(2x+18)=-2x+2
Solve:
18x+162=-2x+2
20x=-160
x=-8
Now that we have the value if x, plug it into one of the original equations(doesn’t matter which equation) and substitute to find y.
y=2x+18
Substitute:
y=2(-8)+18
Solve:
y=-16+18
y=2
