Answer:
58.5 pounds each.
Step-by-step explanation:
If two bookcases weigh 117 pounds and each weighs the same amount, each bookcase must weigh half of the total weight. 117/2 equals 58.5.
3x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0 ....subtract 12 from both sides
3x^2 - 7x = -12 ....divide both sides by 3 to get x^2 by itself
x^2 - 7/3x = -4
His work is not accurate because he divided the second term by 4 instead of 3.
Answer:
y = -4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b ( slope-intercept)
1. Find Slope:
Lets name 2 as y2 and 10 as y1. And 0 as x2 and 2 as x1.
= 
= -4
m/slope = -4
2. Find y-intercept:
2 = -4(0) + b
= 2 = b
Y-intercept/b = 2
3. Put into slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
= y = -4x + 2
Hope that helps! :D
Answer:
They live 285 miles apart
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total distance be x miles
Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state. In the first hour he travels 1/5 of the total distance. This means that he drove x/5 in the first hour. In the second hour he travels 34 miles. That means
Total distance driven in the first and second hour is
(x/5 + 34)miles
He still has 194 miles more to go.
Therefore,
The total distance is the sum of the distance travelled in the first and second hour + the remaining distance.
x = x/5 + 34 + 194
x = x/5 + 228
Cross multiplying
5x = x + 1140
4x = 1140
x = 1140/4 = 285 miles
100 divided by 3. i know this because you are spitting the amount to each person
