Answer:

A. (3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to solve without graphing

equate both equations to each other:

2x - 4 =  - x + 5

add x on both sides:

2x + x - 4 = 5

add 4 on both sides:

2x + x = 5 + 4

collect like terms:

3x = 9

divide 3 on both sides, so

x = 3

now that we have x, go back to any one of the equations and substitute x=3 to find y. I'll use y=2x-4

y = 2x - 4

sub x=3

y = 2(3) - 4

2 × 3 is 6

y = 6 - 4

y = 2

we now have x and y, so the coordinates are (3,2)

If you want to use the graphing method, substitute in x values of your choice, for example -2 to 2 into each equation to find y and when there is a same coordinate in both equations that is the solution.

y = 2x - 4

when x is -2, y = 2(-2)-4 = -8. (-2,-8)

when x is -1, y = 2(-1) - 4= -6. (-1,-6)

when x is 0, y = 2(0)-4 = -4. (0,-4)

when x is 1, y = 2(1) - 4 = -2. (1,-2)

when x is 2, y = 2(2) - 4 = 0. (2,0)

when x is 3, y = 2(3) - 4 = 2. (3,2)

do the same thing of substituting to the other equation

y = -x + 5

when x is -2, y is 7 (-2,7)

when x is -1, y is 6. (-1,6)

when x is 0, y is 5. (0,5)

when x is 1, y is 4. (1,4)

when x is 2, y is 3. (2,3)

when x is 3, y is 2. (3,2)

plot these coordinates on a graph

they both have same x value (3) and same y value (2)

Matt Kaminsky bought a Volvo that is 33∕4 times as expensive as the car his parents bought. If his parents paid $8,000 for their
Mashutka [201]

33/4 is the same as 8 1/4

so that means that matt bought the Volvo for 8 1/4 times as much as the car his parents bought.

therefore... 8,000 times 8.25 = 66,000

Using Unit Rates to compare Ratios continued
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Brandon

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Branden and Pete each play running back. Branden carries the ball 75 times for  550 yards, and Pete has 42 carries for 380 yards.

TO FIND: Who runs farther per carry.

SOLUTION:

Total yards traveled by Brandon =550\text{yards}

No. of times ball carried by Brandon =75\text{ times}

Average yards per carry for Brandon =\frac{\text{total yards traveled}}{\text{number of times ball carried}}

                                                              =\frac{550}{75}

                                                              =\frac{22}{3}\text{ yards per carry}

                                                              =7.33\text{ yards per carry}

Total yards traveled by Pete =380\text{ yards}

No. of times ball carried by Pete =42\text{ times}

Average yards per carry for Pete =\frac{\text{total yards traveled}}{\text{number of times ball carried}}

                                                       =\frac{380}{42}

                                                       ≅ 9\text{ yards per carry}

As the number of yards per carry is higher for Brandon , therefore he runs farther per carry.

A fair dice is rolled 3 times in a row. The outcomes are shown below. Calculate the probability of all three events occurring. R
velikii [3]

Answer:

5/54

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of the dice being 5 = 1/6

probability of the dice being a factor of 6 = 4/6

probability of the dice being more than 1 = 5/6

1/6 * 4/6 = 4/36

4/36 * 5/6 = 20/216

20/216 simplified to lowest is equal to 5/54
