If the amount of students who listed basketball as their favorite sport is x, we have 3 times x - 17 = 487 due to that soccer has 17 fewer players than 3 times basketball. Adding 17 to both sides, we get 3*x=504 and by dividing both sides by 3, we get x=168
For this we simply divide the total ft. by the ft. in a mile
X=6 I hope this helps you out
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is expressed as
x1 + 2x2 = -24- - - - - - - - --1
x1 + 7x2 = -11- - - - - - - --2
We would eliminate x1 by subtracting equation 2 from equation 1. It becomes
- 5x2 = - 13
Dividing both sides of the equation by - 5, it becomes
- 5x2/- 5 = - 13/- 5
x2 = 13/5
Substituting x2 = 13/5 into equation 2, it becomes
x1 + 7 × 13/5 = -11
x1 + 91/5 = - 11
x1 = - 11 - 91/5
x1 = - 146/5
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
(x₁ , y₁) = (-1 , -2) & (x₂ , y₂) = (3 , 10)
![= \frac{10-[-2]}{3-[-1]}\\\\=\frac{10+2}{3+1}\\\\=\frac{12}{4}\\\\=4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B10-%5B-2%5D%7D%7B3-%5B-1%5D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cfrac%7B10%2B2%7D%7B3%2B1%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cfrac%7B12%7D%7B4%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D4)
m = 4
y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
y - [-2] = 4(x - [-1])
y + 2 = 4(x + 1)
y + 2 = 4x + 4
y = 4x + 4 - 2
y = 4x + 2
