If Mary spent half of her allowance the equation will begin with 1/2x or 0.5x where x is her allowance and 0.5 is half of her allowance spent. Mary also earned 7 dollars by washing the car so this will be added to her allowance spent.
The problem says that after Mary has spent half of her allowance at the movies she was left with 18 dollars so that means that the equation must be equal to 18.

The equation you want to set up is

0.5x+7=18
Where, 18-7=11
0.5x=11
11/.5 = x
x = $22

Thus, Mary has a weekly allowance of 22 dollars.

A/ab-bsquare + b/ab-asquare?​
lord [1]

Answer:

\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

\dfrac{a}{ab-b^2}+\dfrac{b}{ab-a^2}

It can be solved as follows :

\dfrac{a}{ab-b^2}+\dfrac{b}{ab-a^2}=\dfrac{a}{b(a-b)}+\dfrac{b}{a(b-a)}\\\\=\dfrac{a}{b(a-b)}+\dfrac{b}{-a(-b+a)}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{a-b}(\dfrac{a}{b}-\dfrac{b}{a})\\\\=\dfrac{a^2-b^2}{ab(a-b)}\\\\=\dfrac{(a-b)(a+b)}{ab(a-b)}\\\\=\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}

So, the solution of the given expression is equal to \dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}.

Which points lie on the line whose equation is 8x - 2y + 7 = -9? Select all that apply.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

A.(-2, 0)

C. (-1.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If a point lie on the line, then the point must satisfy the equation of the line (makes the equation true)

we have

8x-2y+7=-9

subtract 7 both sides

8x-2y=-9-7

8x-2y=-16

divide by 2 both sides

4x-y=-8

Substitute the value of x and the value of y of each point in the linear equation and analyze the result

<u><em>Verify each point</em></u>

case A) we have

(-2, 0)

For x=-2, y=0

substitute

4(-2)-(0)=-8

-8=-8 ---> is true

so

the point lie on the line

case B) we have

(1, 3)

For x=1, y=3

substitute

4(1)-(3)=-8

1=-8 ---> is not true

so

the point not lie on the line

case C) we have

(-1, 4)

For x=-1, y=4

substitute

4(-1)-(4)=-8

-8=-8 ---> is true

so

the point lie on the line

case D) we have

(1, -4)

For x=1, y=-4

substitute

4(1)-(-4)=-8

8=-8 ---> is not true

so

the point not lie on the line

case E) we have

(0, -1)

For x=0, y=-1

substitute

4(0)-(-1)=-8

1=-8 ---> is not true

so

the point not lie on the line
