The solution to the system of linear equations is where the two lines intersect.
Look for the point where the two lines intersect. The x-value is 2 1/2, and the y-value is -4.
The answer is C.
Answer:
The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simple proportion problem. It can be solved by pure logic reasoning without any formulas
It a dozen pencils cost $0.97, each pencil cost $0.97/12=0.08083
With $5 she will be able to purchase 5/0.08083=61.85 pencils
We must round to the nearest lower integer
The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5

Answer:
5187
Step-by-step explanation:
At the end of 1 hour, the count is 2.5% greater than at the beginning.
5060 + 2.5% × 5060 = 5060 +126.5 = 5186.5
The count at the end of the hour was about 5187.
Answer:
x = 18
m = 21.2
p = 31.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the left-side length to the bottom-side length is the same for both triangles:
x/11.2 = (x +27)/28
28x = 11.2(x +27) = 11.2x +302.4 . . . . . multiply by 11.2·28
16.8x = 302.4 . . . . . . . subtract 11.2x
x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16.8
__
The length of m can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse.
x^2 +11.2^2 = m^2
m = √(324 +125.44) = √449.44 = 21.2
__
The length of p can also be found using the Pythagorean theorem. We prefer the proportion ...
p/27 = m/x
p = 27(21.2/18) = 31.8
The lengths of the unknown sides in the figure are ...
x = 18
m = 21.2
p = 31.8
