No, it isn't a right triangle.
Answer:
p = 5.88/3 –.75
The original be price was $1.21 per lb pound
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the new price per pound, divide 5.88 by 3.
Then subtract .75 from the new be price to find the original price.
5.88/3 = 1.96
1.96 –.75 = 1.21
9/4y-2=25
9/4y-2+2=27+2
9/4y=27
9/4y*4y=27*4y
9=4y*27,
1/3=4y, (9/27 simpltfies to 1/3, 1/3 divided by 4: 1/3*1/4=1/12)
1/12=y
Answer:y=1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve systems of equations using either substitution or elimination. For these problems, I recommend elimination. I'll do the first one as an example.
-3x + 16y = 9
-4x + 8y = 12
Multiply the second equation by -2.
8x − 16y = -24
Add to the first equation (notice the y's cancel out).
(-3x + 16y) + (8x − 16y) = 9 − 24
5x = -15
Solve for x.
x = -3
Now you can plug this into either equation to find y.
-3(-3) + 16y = 9
9 + 16y = 9
y = 0
The solution is (-3, 0).
Answer:
I believe that Kevin is 6 years old now.
Step-by-step explanation:
I used the guess and check method to figure this out.
First, I began by making Daniel 1 years old, two years ago. Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel two years ago, so he would be 4 at the time. Now, Daniel would be 3 and Kevin would be 6 years old. The statement that Kevin is three years older than Daniel would confirm this, because 6-3=3. Hope this helps, this is my first time answering:)
