Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • x - y = 6
  • x/y = 2

<u>Solve for x in the second equation.</u>

  • x/y = 2
  • => x = 2y

<u>Solve for any variable in the first equation.</u>

  • x - y = 6
  • => 2y - y = 6
  • => y = 6

<u>Solve for x using the result obtained from the second equation.</u>

  • x = 2y
  • => x = 2(6)
  • => x = 12

The numbers are 12 and 6.

Solve x/3 = x+2/2. X=
Leni [432]

Answer:

I will assume that the term "x+2/2" is meant to be "(x + 2)/2)."  Otherwise the equation would read (x/3) = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x/3) = (x + 2)/2

x = 3*(x+2)/2   [Multiply both sides by 3]

x = (3x + 6)/2

x = (3/2)x + 6/2

x - (3/2)x = 3

-0.5x = 3

x = -6

====================

Check:

Does (x/3) = (x + 2)/2 for x = -6?

(-6/3) = (-6 + 2)/2

-2 = -4/2

-2 = -2  YES

Two sets of quadratic expressions are shown below in various forms: Line 1: x2 + 3x + 2 (x + 1)(x + 2) (x + 1.5)2 − 0.25 Line 2:
Rainbow [258]
Line 1:
Expanding the vertex form, we have
  x² + 2·1.5x + 1.5² - 0.25 = x² +3x +2
Expanding the factored form, we have
  x² +(1+2)x +1·2 = x² +3x +2
Comparing these to x² +3x +2, we find ...
  • the three expressions are equivalent on Line 1

Line 2:
Expanding the vertex form, we have
  x² +2·2.5x +2.5² +6.25 = x² +5x +12.5
Expanding the factored form, we have
  x² +(2+3)x +2·3 = x² +5x +6
Comparing these to x² +5x +6, we find ...
  • the three expressions are NOT equivalent on Line 2

The appropriate choice is
  Line 1 only

Lexie is making a scale drawing of a soccer field that is 120 yards long and 80 yards wide. If the field in Lexie’s drawing is 3
timurjin [86]

Answer:

  • <em><u>The field in Lexie's drawing should be 20 cm long.</u></em>

Explanation:

Making a scale drawing requires that the figure be similar, which implies that the sides of the figures be proportional.

The proportion for a drawing 30 cm wide and unknown length with the soccer field that is 120 yards long and 80 yards wide is:

  • length of the drawing / width of the drawing = length of the field / width of the field

Thus, using x for the unknown width of the drawing:

  • 30 cm / x = 120 yard / 80 yard

Thus, you must solve for x:

  • 30 cm × 80 yard = 120 yard × x

  • x = 30 cm × 80 yard / 120 yard = 20 cm.

Hence, the field in Lexie's drawing should be 20 cm long.

4. If the paint costs $30 per gallon and you need to spend $60 on supplies, and you can
Bezzdna [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

if I understand this right, then you need paint and additional supplies.

but I don't see any information indicating how many gallons of paint I will need.

so, I can go only with the 1 gallon specified.

so,

1×30 + 60 = $90

we can save $45 per month.

then we need

90 / 45 = 2

months to have enough money.

please update the numbers to how many gallons you really need, and then take that result and divide it by the 45 savings per month.
