Y = |x| - 2. Nothing too complicated for this transformation
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's call the time she needs to catch up "x", and so Terry's rate would be x-6 since he left home 6 hours earlier. Then we multiply the rates to get 20x - 120 = 80x. The answer is -2, but we can just say 2.
Checking our answer, that means if it took Sally 2 hours, it took Terry 8 hours for he left home 6 hours earlier. So 8 times 20 = 160km traveled. 2 times 80 = 160km traveled. Same distance.
1/2 - 2/15= 15-4/30 = 11/30 this means that if you were to add 11/30 to 2/15 is exactly equal to 1/2, to fully answer your question you can use any value above that like 12/30 (keep in mind you have to simplify) = 6/15 = 2/5. But then again your question says to add any number to make it greater than 1/2 so technically you could just add 100 or 200 or 1/2 to make the sum of it greater than one half
Answer:
$17,000 at 14% and $9,000 at 2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amount invested at 14%.
Let y = amount invested at 2%.
x + y = 26000
0.14x + 0.02y = 2560
-0.02x - 0.02y = -520
(+) 0.14x + 0.02y = 2560
-------------------------------------
0.12x = 2040
x = 17,000
x + y = 26000
17000 + y = 26000
y = 9000
