Answer:
Jake is 9, and Jake's dad is 43.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, let's start off by putting a variable for Jack's age, A.
We know that Jack's father is 2 less than 5 times, so we can write his as 5x -2.
Now let's make an equation:
52 = x + 5x - 2
We need to isolate the x-values so we need to add 2 on both sides:
54= x + 5x
No we need to add the like terms:
54 = 6x
Finally, we just divide by 6 on each side.
Now we know X = 9 but we're not done yet :)
So because Jake's dad is almost 5 times as much, we first multiply Jack's age by 5. We get 45 but we need to subtract 2 which leaves us with 43.
1: 1.19 for 67.2 ounces is about 1.77 cents per ounce. However, $1.50 for 72 ounces is about 2.08 cents per ounce. Clearly, then, the first bottle is cheaper.
2. We simply divide 3/4 by 2 to get (3/4)/2=3/(4*2)=3/8.
3. If the length of the second is 20 feet compared to a 2-foot length for the first, the width of the second rectangle will be ten times the width of the first, so the width of the second rectangle is 10*8=80.
Ok so first we find the equation that equals one variable.
2y = -x + 9
3x - 6y = -15
We solve for y.
2y = -x + 9
y = -x/2 + 9/2
Then we plug in this y value into the other equation to keep only one variable so we can solve for it.
3x - 6y = -15
3(-x + 9/2) - 6y = -15
-3x + 27/2 - 6y = -15
-9y + 27/2 = -15
-9y = 3/2
-y = 3/18
y = -3/18
Then we plug in this numerical y-value into the first equation which we found out by solving an equation for y.
y = -x/2 + 9/2
-3/18 = -x/2 + 9/2
-84/18 = -x/2
-x = 9 1/3
x = -28/3
Your answer would be (-28/3, -3/18)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
X<-5
Step-by-step explanation:
1) open the brackets
2) take -35 to the other side with -10
where it turns to be -5X<-10+35
3) work out to find -5X<25
4) divide both sides by -5
to find X<-5
