Y = x + 4
y = 3x

3x = x + 4
- x - x 
2x = 4
2 2
x = 2
y = x + 4
y = 2 + 4
y = 6
(x, y) = (2, 6)

You just do
3x=x+4
subtract x from both sides
2x=4
divide 2 from both sides
x=2
y=2+4
y=6
(x,y)= (2,6)

choli [55]

Answer:

The number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of number of girls to the boys = 3 : 5

Let the number of girls is g and boys is b initially.

b : g = 3 : 5

5 b = 3 g ..... (1)

Now, girls are 6 + g and boys are b - 9

So, the ratio is

(b - 9) : (6 + g) = 1 : 4

4 b - 36 = 6 + g

4 b - g = 42 .... (2)

From ( 1 ) and ( 2 )

$4 b - \frac {5 b}{3}= 42\\\\\frac{7 b }{3} = 42\\\\b = 18$

And , g = 5 x 18/3 = 30

So, the number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.

Jessica reads a story about a turtle that swam 16 feet in 24 seconds. She assumes that the time, t, that it takes the turtle to

Monica [59]

You would start by figuring out the distance the turtle swims every second by dividing 24 by 16.
24➗16=1.5
From this we can take the numbers from either T: 1, ___, 24, 45 or D: ___, 10, 16, ___ to figure out the blank spaces for the other using multiplication or division. Divide T by 1.5, or multiply D by 1.5 to find the other

T: 1, 15, 24, 45
D: 1.5, 10, 16, 30
