X = Juan's age
y = Eliza's age
Some key words/phrases we can use to help us make the equation are:
-is (whatever comes after this word usually equals the end result, or what it equals)
-two years younger
-than
-half her brother's age
.
just break it down :)
x/2 (half her brother's age) - 2 (two years younger) = y (Eliza is...)
| basically,
v
x/2 - 2 = y
So if Juan is 6, then we need to plug in 6 for x.
6/2 - 2 = y
3 - 2 = y
1 = y
ANSWER: Eliza is one year old.
Answer:
-16
Step-by-step explanation:
Anything written in the form of a(b) or (b)a means a × b:
(-4)4 means -4 × 4 which is -16 (a positive and a negative multiplied together make a negative).
Hope this helps!
Answer:
12.
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation seems to want you to use the Order of Operations, a.k.a PEMDAS (which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction). When you do a problem like this, you use the Order of Operations to figure out the order in which you'd solve your problem.
You would first solve what is in parentheses, since that is the first letter in PEMDAS. 18-6x2 is what we have in our parentheses, but it's too confusing to be solved yet. The next letter is E, a.k.a exponents, but there are no exponents in this equation, so we move on. Next is M, Multiplication. We would multiply 6 by 2, which gives us 12. Moving on, we have D, Division. We would do 36/6, which is 6.
Our 5th letter is A, Addition. We would have to add our 6 to (18-12), but that couldn't work, since our 18-12 is still in parentheses, and those come first. So, we would skip to the last letter, S, Subtraction. 18-12=6, and since we solved all the problems in the parentheses, we remove them, and add both 6's together, giving us 12.
Answer:
1) 2/7; 43; 3/7
2) C
3) 30; 30; 10; is not; 10; is not
Step-by-step explanation:
1) y + 4/7 = 6/7
y = 6/7 - 4/7
y = 2/7
17 + b = 60
b = 60 - 17
b = 43
6/7 = m + 3/7
m = 6/7 - 3/7
m = 3/7
2) 11.5 - x = 5.25
x = 11.5 - 5.25
x = 6.25
3) he can substitute 30 for t.
He can then multiply ⅓ by 30 to get a product of 10 (⅓ × 30 = 10).
Since 15 is not equal to 10, Harry's solution is not correct
Answer:
(1, 7 )
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Then the equations of the 2 lines are
y = 4x + 3 → (1)
y = 6x + 1 → (2)
Substitute y = 6x + 1 into (1)
6x + 1 = 4x + 3 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
2x + 1 = 3 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
2x = 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y
Substituting into (1)
y = 4(1) + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7
Point of intersection = (1, 7 )
