Answer:
y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides marked with the same marking are congruent, so we have two equations:
Adding the equations gives ...
5x = 25
x = 5 . . . . . . divide by 5
Then the second equation tells us ...
y = 9 -2x = 9 -2(5) = -1
The value of y is -1.
Answer:
The drama club bought 35 t-shirt
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
t-shirt = x
Sweatshirt = y
Total cost = $795
They purchase 20 more tshirts than sweatshirts
x = y + 20
The equation is:
12x + 25y = 795
12(y + 20) + 25y = 795
12y + 240 + 25y = 795
37y = 795 - 240
37y = 555
y = 15
Substitute y = 15 into
x = y + 20
x = 15 + 20
x = 35
t-shirt = 35
Sweatshirt = 15
The drama club bought 35 t-shirt
-2x + 5 = -1
subtract 5 from both sides: -2x = -6
divide each side by -2: x = 3
plug in 3: 5(3)
multiply: 15
the value of 5x is 15.
Answer:
one-sixth
multiply the numerator (2) by the number of kids (3) because you are accounting for the fraction of the whole pizza. By doing this you should get 3/6. divide the denominator by the number of kids (3/3) getting you to a value of 1, and replace the denominator, making the amount of pizza one-sixth.
f(x) = mx + b
m = slope = -5
f(2) = 10 = (-5)(2) + b
b = 10 + 10 = 20
Ans. m=-5, b = 20
