Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the first equation. Subtract 3x from both sides.
y−3x=−2
Consider the second equation. Subtract x from both sides.
y−2−x=0
Add 2 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
y−x=2
To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.
y−3x=−2,y−x=2
Choose one of the equations and solve it for y by isolating y on the left hand side of the equal sign.
y−3x=−2
Add 3x to both sides of the equation.
y=3x−2
Substitute 3x−2 for y in the other equation, y−x=2.
3x−2−x=2
Add 3x to −x.
2x−2=2
Add 2 to both sides of the equation.
2x=4
Divide both sides by 2.
x=2
Substitute 2 for x in y=3x−2. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for y directly.
y=3×2−2
Multiply 3 times 2.
y=6−2
Add −2 to 6.
y=4
The system is now solved.
y=4,x=2
A box of donuts would cost: b = 3.84 + 0.18f
First, we have to find the total cost of the donuts.
12 x 0.32 = 3.84
Next, we need to determine the cost of the box. However, we don't know the surface area, just the cost per foot. We can multiply the number of square feet of the box by $0.18 to find the cost.
So our equation could be: b = 3.84 + 0.18f (where f is the surface area of the box in square feet)
Answer:
60 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of minutes be represented as x
For Plan A
Plan A charges $35 plus $0.25 per minute for calls.
$35 + $0.25 × x
35 + 0.25x
For Plan B
Plan B charges $20 plus $0.50 per minute for calls.
$20 + $0.50 × x
20 + 0.50x
For what number of minutes do both plans cost the same amount?
This is calculated by equating Plan A to Plan B
Plan A = Plan B
35 + 0.25x = 20 + 0.50x
Collect like terms
35 - 20 = 0.50x - 0.25x
15 = 0.25x
x = 15/0.25
x = 60 minutes.
Hence, the number of minutes that both plans cost the same amount is 60 minutes
15.5-3.5=12. this is how many hours he has worked already.
12/1⅓=9. this is because how many hours he has worked per how many hours he worked per day to show how many days he worked
the answer is 9 days.
12hours * 1day/1⅓ hours
^^ignore that if it doesn't make sense, but basically the hours will cancel and you'd be left with days as your only unit to show why you would divide 12 by 1⅓
hope this helped!
Answer:
If he wishes to spilt it evenly there will be less for each person because they all have to give a peice to the other friend.
