The answer is B.
In order to add the two values together, you must find the least common multiple for the denominators. The denominators are 8 and 4, and the least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8. Because you have to multiply 4 by 2 to get 8, you must also multiply 3 by 2 to get 6. This will give you 6/8.
Answer:
The answer to your question is: width = 3 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Perimeter = 16 meters
The room is 2 meters longer than its width, then length = width + 2
Perimeter = 2 length + 2 width
16 = 2(width + 2) + 2 width
16 = 2 width + 4 + 2 width
16 = 4 width +4
16 - 4 = 4 width
12 = 4 width
12/4 = width
3 = width
length = 3 + 2 = 5 meters
Answer: the fixed cost to rent the limousine is $200
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the fixed cost rent the limousine.
Let y represent the cost of of hiring the driver of the limousine per hour.
It cost $500 to rent a limousine for 5 hours. This means that
x + 5y = 500 - - - - - - - - - - -1
It costs 800 to rent a limousine for 10 hours. This means that
x + 10y = 800 - - - - - - - - - - -2
Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes
- 5y = - 300
y = - 300 /- 5
y = 60
Substituting y = 60 into equation 1, it becomes
x + 5 × 60 = 500
x + 300 = 500
x = 500 - 300
x = 200
Eay peasy
solve graphically
graph them and find the poitn that they intersect at
y=mx+b
m=slope
b= y intercept
y=7x-9
slope=7
yintercept=-9
y=3x-1
slope=3
yinercept=-1
I have attached graph below
easier way would be to simply sub them and solve
7x-9=y=3x-1
7x-9=3x-1
4x-9=-1
4x=8
x=2
y=3x-1
y=3*2-1
y=6-1
y=5
(2,5) is solution
