On Monday, Avi walked from his home to the school track and walked 4 laps around the track for a total of 3.5 miles. On Saturday

, Avi ran from his home to the school track, ran 2 laps, and then ran home for a total of 4 miles. Let x represent the distance from Avi’s home to the school track, and let y represent the distance of one lap around the track. Write a system of equations to represent this situation.

Answer:

3.5 = x + 4*y

4 = 2x + 2*y

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance ran by Avi is the sum of the distance from his house to the track, and the total distance ran in the tracks (that is, the distance of one lap times the number of laps Avi ran).

If we call 'd' the total distance and 'k' the number of laps, we have the equation:

d = x + k*y

So with the data given, we can have the following system:

3.5 = x + 4*y

4 = 2x + 2*y

In the second equation, we have 2x because Avi ran from his home to the track, and in the end ran back home, so Avi ran the distance x two times.

.Bryan was given the equation y= -5x+3. He says the rate of change is 3 and the initial value is -5. Is Bryan correct? If not, c
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Correct rate of change is -5; correct initial value is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the coefficient of the x term, which here is -5.  So Bryan has the rate of change wrong.

The initial value of the function is found by letting x  =  0.  Here, we get

y = -5(0) + 3, or y = b = 3.  The initial value is 3, not -5.

The answer is 78 feet of fencing. This is because you need to find the perimeter of the yard. To find the perimeter of the yard, you add the sides together, so 21+21+18+18 = 78.

There are 35 students in a drama club two out of every five boys in the club are boys how much diamonds in the club are boys
andrew11 [14]

Given:

Number of students = 35

Two out of every five boys in the club are boys.

To find:

The number of students in the club that are boys.

Solution:

Two out of every five boys in the club are boys. It means, the ratio of boys to the total number of student is 2:5.

Let the number of boys be 2x and number of students be 5x.

According to the question,

5x=35

x=7

Now, the number of boys is

2x=2(7)

2x=14

Therefore, 14 students in the club are boys.

Find the slope of the line through each pair (1,-19),(-2,-7)
expeople1 [14]

hello i see that no one has answered your question yet well im here to help:)

(1,-19),(-2,-7)

so here one way you can find the slope

i usually always use this to help me to keep it in order

------------------

(X1,Y1)(X2,Y2)

   X2-X1

   Y2-Y1

use this and your garanteed to get the right answer everytime

------------------

X = -2 – 1 = -3

Y = -7 – -19 = 12

once you do that you divide if possible

12/-3

which gives you -4

so your answer is -4

its really not hard you just got to get use to it

hope it help you:)
