Let the number of years of watching TV be
x
.
The number of years sleeping exceeds the number of years watching TV by
18
. This means that the number of years sleeping is higher than the number of years watching TV by
18
and can be represented by
(x+18).
The total time is 34
years. So we can form the following equation and solve for the required values:
x+(x+18)=34
x+x+18=34
2x=34-18
2x=16
x=16/2
x=8
Thus, the number of years watching is 8
and the number of years sleeping is
8+18=26
.
Answer:
y=√x+5 -1
the answer is option C,,
x=-7,y=√-7+5 -1=√-2 -1
we can't find the square root of negative values, therefore it displays as error
x=-6,y=√-6+5-1=√-1 -1
same reason
x=-5,y=√-5+5-1=√0-1=-1
x=-4,y=√-4+5-1=√1-1=0
x=-1,y=√-1+5-1=√4-1=1
x=4,y=√4+5-1=√9-1=2
Answer:
missing element is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x³ - 2 ( substitute x = 2 )
f(2) = 2³ - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6 ← missing element
ordered pair is (2, 6 )
Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold
From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
