Answer: -2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The average can be found by adding up the numbers then dividing by how many numbers there are in this case there are two numbers.
-30+25=-5
-5/2 = -2.5
Answer:
c correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
first, distribute 7 to 6m (this means 7 • 6m)
7 • 6m = 42m
then distribute 7 to 7 (which is 7 • 7)
7 • 7 = 49
your simplified expression is <u>42m + 49</u>. i hope this helps! have a great day <3
Answer: C) 0
The lines are parallel. They never cross. To have a solution, the lines need to intersect. Each intersection is a solution. That's why there are no solutions here. The system is inconsistent.
Note how the slopes are both 1/2 while the y intercepts are different. Parallel lines have equal slopes but different y intercepts.
Answer:
$110
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a, b, and c represent the earnings of Alan, Bob, and Charles. The problem statement tells us ...
a + b + c = 480 . . . . . . the combined total of their earnings
-a + b = 40 . . . . . . . . . . Bob earned 40 more than Alan
2a - c = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . Charles earned twice as much as Alan
Adding the first and third equations, we get ...
(a + b + c) + (2a - c) = (480) + (0)
3a + b = 480
Subtracting the second equation gives ...
(3a +b) - (-a +b) = (480) -(40)
4a = 440 . . . . . . . . simplify
a = 110 . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of a
Alan earned $110.
_____
<em>Check</em>
Bob earned $40 more, so $150. Charles earned twice as much, so $220.
The total is then $110 +150 +220 = $480 . . . . as required
