O is the midpoint so both sides FO and OG need to equal each other.
3x + 17 = 7x - 15
Subtract 3x from both sides:
17 = 4x -15
Add 15 to both sides:
32 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4:
x = 32/4
X = 8
Now you have the value of X, solve for the lengths:
FO = 3x +17 = 3(8) +17 = 24 +17 = 41
OG = 7x -15 = 7(8) -15 = 56-15 = 41
Total length would be 41 + 41 = 82
3 hours and 55 minutes - 15 minutes would leave 3 hours and 40 minutes. You figure there’s 20 minutes 3 times in an hour so 3x3 is 9 + the extra 2 20 minute periods from the 40 minutes. So 11 batches of cookies, 48x11= 528. Amy made 528 cookies.
Answer: 115, 2645
(x= 115, y= 2645)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two methods to this, which is using the graph with each x and y value, or substituting in values.
I would suggest looking at the graph first and then substituting values so you know the equation is being satisfied by the ordered pair.
In this case, one way to check it could look like this (substituting y value):
y = 23x
2645 = 23x
x = 2645÷23
x = 115
