The sum of 5 times one number, x, and 4 times a second number, y, is 87. If the sum of the two numbers is 20, find the two numbers. Pls hurry need it before schools is over
(hint will mark brainiest)

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 5x + 4y = 87 and x + y = 20.

=> 5x + 4y = 87 and 4x + 4y = 80.

5x + 4y = 87

- (4x + 4y = 80)

=> x = 7

Therefore (7) + y = 20, y = 13.

The answers are x = 7 and y = 13.

FAST ILL MARK U BRAINLIEST Write an equation of the line that passes through (2, −1) and is parallel to the line 2y + 3x = 8 . Write your answer in slope intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y=[tex]-\frac{3}{2}[/tex]+2

Step-by-step explanation:

for an equation to be parallel with another both should have the same rate of change(m).

the line given to us is in general form, and we can change it to slope-intercept form to get the slope. (y=mx+b)

Isolate for y:

2y+3x=8

2y=-3x+8

y=-3/2x+8/2

y=-3/2x+4

thus the slope of the line we are trying to find must also equal -3/2

use point slope form to find the equation (substitute (2, -1) into equation)

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-1)=(-3/2)(x-2)

y+1=[tex]-\frac{3}{2}[/tex]x+3

y=[tex]-\frac{3}{2}[/tex]+2

Answers

Answer: 225 adult tickets, 375 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

a = adult tickets

s = student tickets

a + s = 600 (the adult and student ticket added together should equal 600)

6.00a + 4.50s = 3,037.50 ($6 multiply by the adult ticket plus $4.50 multiply by the student ticket should equal to 3,037.50)

a = -s + 600 (get one of the variable by itself by subtracting it from one side)

6 (-s + 600) + 4.5s = 3,037.5 (substitute the a for -s + 600)

-6s + 3600 + 4.5s = 3,037.5 (combine like terms)

-1.5s + 3600 = 3,037.5 (subtract 3600 from each side)

-1.5s = - 562.5 (divide -1.5 from each side)

s = 375

600 = 375 + a (substitute s for 375)

a = 225

A school board voted whether to adopt new math books. Those that voted yes
out numbered those that voted no by a ratio of 5 to 1. If 18 school board
members voted, how many voted yes for new math books and how many
voted no?

Answers

Answer:

15 people voted yes and 3 people voted no.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ratio of yes to no = 5 : 1

Total number of board members who voted = 18

Let,

x be the number of times.

5x+x = 18

6x = 18

Dividing both sides by 6

[tex]\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{18}{6}\\x=3[/tex]

People who voted yes = 5(3) = 15

People who voted no = 3

Hence,

15 people voted yes and 3 people voted no.

The calculated value of the gcf of 3x and 12x is 3x

Calculating the gcf of 3x and 12x

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Expressions = 3x and 12x

Expand both expressions

So, we have

3x = 3 * x

12x = 2 * 2 * 3 * x

Multiply the common factors

GCF = 3 * x

Expand and simplify

Answers

Answer: 3x^2 − 11x − 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify  (x − 6) (3x + 7)

Expand (x − 6) (3x + 7) using the  FOIL Method.

Apply the distributive property.

  x (3x + 7) − 6 (3x + 7)  

Apply the distributive property.

  x (3x) + x ⋅ 7 − 6 (3x + 7)

Apply the distributive property.

  x (3x) + x ⋅ 7 − 6 (3x) − 6 ⋅ 7

Simplify and combine like terms.

Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.

  3x ⋅ x + x ⋅ 7 − 6 (3x) − 6 ⋅ 7

Multiply x by x by adding the exponents.

Move x.

  3 (x ⋅ x) + x ⋅ 7 − 6 (3x) − 6 ⋅ 7

Multiply x by x.

  3x^2 + x ⋅ 7 − 6 (3x) − 6 ⋅ 7

Move 7 to the left of x.

  3x^2 + 7 ⋅ x − 6 (3x) − 6 ⋅ 7

Multiply 3 by −6.

  3x^2 + 7x − 18x − 6 ⋅ 7

Multiply −6 by 7.

  3x^2 + 7x − 18x − 42

Subtract 18x from 7x.

  3x^2 − 11x − 42


(x-6)(3x+7)
= 3x^2 + 7x - 18x - 42
= 3x^2 - 11x - 42

Howe Moving Company has a loading ramp for their moving truck. The ramp connects to the truck 5 feet above the ground, and the length of the ramp from the truck to the ground is 13 feet long. What is the distance along the ground from the truck to the end of the ramp?

Answers

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The ramp connects to the truck 5 feet above the ground, and the length of the ramp from the truck to the ground is 13 feet long.

Now we need to find the distance along the ground from the truck to the end of the ramp.

Here,

5 feet will be perpendicular distance, 13 feet will be hypotenuse and we need to find the base.

Using Pythagoras therorem to find it :

[tex]b=\sqrt{13^2-5^2} \\\\=12\ \text{feet}[/tex]

So, the required distance is 12 feet.

Joe buys a compact disc that costs $29.99. He give the store clerk $50.00.

How much change should he get?

Answers

Answer:

$20.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply subtract $29.99 from $50.00 so, your problem should be set up like this:

You substitute the numbers with 10s, but there cannot be more than one.

Answer:

$20.01

Step-by-step explanation:

You should subtract 50.00 and 29.99, and since there are three zeros, you have to borrow from the five, making it a four. Then, you make the first zero into a 10, then borrow from that one, making it a nine, same with the second zero. Then, for the third zero, you only borrow one from the second zero, turning the second one into a nine and the third on into a 10. You then start the subtracting process. This is the first part to the problem:

50.00 - 29.99 = ?

Then, this is what you should have after:

49.91(0) - 29.99 = ?

This is what you get after:

20.01

Then, add the dollar sign. You will get:

$20.01

How Did Transportation Affect Westward Expansion? Metered music or sounds have a consistent beat and/or tempo. true or false While not formally one of the national political institutions, political parties today are nonetheless major players in both national and state politics. They have long provided what may be considered quasi-governmental services, including candidate recruitment, the operation of political campaigns, and the supervision of the voting process. As with the federal bureaucracy, political parties are important extra-constitutional political institutions that have been essentially grafted onto our separation of powers system. The ambiguity surrounding the proper institutional role that parties should conceptually play in American politics has posed vexing problems for the courts in balancing party independence with government supervision. In order to ascertain the role that political parties should play within our political system, it is useful to see them as informal parts of the larger system of separation of powers. If parties are seen as part of this larger system, then it follows that they are entitled to a certain amount of judicial protection to ensure their integrity and independence. Under this interpretation, the courts should bear some responsibility for preserving the separateness of political parties in the same way as the judiciary ensures that the powers of the formal branches of the government do not unduly infringe upon one another. If parties are seen as performing some governmental functions, then it follows that they should be entitled to some independence in the conduct of these functions. If parties are to check government power, then some of their activities must lie beyond direct government control.Robert C.
