Twice the difference of a number and 2 is at least 16 use the variable y for the unknown number

Answer:

y = 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

This more of a guess than a reality of method. You have to try and guess which number when multiplied by 4 will give 9. It won't happen directly.

The best clue is provide by (0,-3).

So let's start with a general linear equation.

y = mx + b

If you put in 0 for x then mx disappears and you are are left with y = - 3

That means that b = - 3

So now you have

y = mx - 3  

Now try another one

y = mx - 3

y = 9

x = 4

9 = mx - 3

9 = 4m - 3            Add 3 to both sides

9+3 = 4m-3+3      Combine

12 = 4m                Divide by 4

12/4 = 4m/4        

3 = m

So the equation you want so far, is y = 3x - 3               Does it work for anything else?

Try - 3 , - 12 . If it works for this, it should work for anything.

y = 3*-3 - 3

y = -9 -3

y = - 12

and it does work, so that's your answer.

Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

when solving with percentages, you can “cross multiply”,

we know the fraction would be set up this way:

[tex]\frac{769}{9950}*\frac{x}{100}[/tex]

*there would be an 100 bc a percentage is out of 100*

Now, you have to multiply 769 by 100

[tex]769*100=\\ 76900[/tex]

Then divide by 9950 to get “x”

[tex]79600/9950=\\ 8[/tex]

Hill family's sprinkler was on for 25 hours, while Moore family's sprinkler was on for 35 hours

Represent the time the Hill family and the Moore family use the sprinkler with H and M.

So, the total time is:

[tex]H + M = 60[/tex]

And the rate is:

[tex]25H + 20M = 1325[/tex]

Make H the subject in [tex]H + M = 60[/tex]

[tex]H= 60 - M[/tex]

Substitute 60 - M for H in [tex]25H + 20M = 1325[/tex]

[tex]25(60 - M) + 20M = 1325[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]1500 - 25M + 20M = 1325[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]- 25M + 20M = 1325 - 1500[/tex]

[tex]- 5M = -175[/tex]

Divide both sides by -5

[tex]M = 35[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]H= 60 - M[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]H = 60 - 35[/tex]

[tex]H = 25[/tex]

Hence, Hill family's sprinkler was on for 25 hours, while Moore family's sprinkler was on for 35 hours

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both coefficients are divisors of the constant, so the intercepts are integer values. This makes it easy to graph the line using the x- and y-intercepts.

x-intercept

Set y=0 and you get ...

  x = 6

y-intercept

Set x=0 and you have ...

  3y = 6

  y = 2 . . . . divide by 3

__

The intercepts (6, 0) and (0, 2) are points on the line. Plot these points and draw the line through them.

Therefore, the value of x is 7.2.

Answer:

$28

Step-by-step explanation:

30% = 30/100 = 0.3

40 x 0.3 = 12

40 - 12 = $28

Answer:

QUESTION 1

The image attached shows the graph of the given system of equations. There you would notice that the solution is (-1,-5), which is the interception point.

To verify the solution algebraically, we need to multiply the first equation with -1 and then sum them up

Then, we use this value to find the other one

Therefore, the solution is (-1,-5), which is the same showed graphically.

QUESTION 2.

Using the same process as we did in the QUESTION 1. The image attached shows both lines and the interception point which is the solution. So, the solution is (6,0).

To verify the solution algebraically, we must multiply the second equation by -6

Then, we use this value to find the other one

Therefore, the solution is (6,0), the same showed graphically.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you don't get it

question 1

solution is (-1,-5)

question 2

solution is (6,0),

The solution to the system of linear equations x+6y=6 and y=1/3 x−2 is x = 6 and y = 0.

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have:

The system of linear equations:

x+6y=6

y=1/3 x−2

Part A: Graph is shown in the picture.

Part B: The intersection point is (6, 0)

x = 6

y =0

Part C: By substitution method.

[tex]\rm x+6\left(\dfrac{x}{3}-2\right)=6[/tex]

x  = 6

y = 0

Thus, the solution to the system of linear equations x+6y=6 and y=1/3 x−2 is x = 6 and y = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre Roberts scored a total of 34 touchdowns

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

The total touchdowns is 80.

Duke Johnson scored 14 of the touchdowns.

Josh McCown scored 40% of the touchdowns. = 40% of 80 = 0.4 * 80 = 32

Let x represent the number of touchdowns scored by Andre Roberts, hence:

x + 14 + 32 = 80

x + 46 = 80

x = 34

The value of the variable x can be determined using the circle theorem to

determine the angle formed by x.

The correct responses are;

Reasons:

(1) From circle theorem, we have;

Therefore;

Angle subtended by [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AB}[/tex] at center = Angle subtended by [tex]\widehat {BC}[/tex] at the center;

Therefore;

Angle subtended by [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AB}[/tex] at the circumference = Angle subtended by [tex]\mathbf{\widehat {BC}}[/tex] at the circumference

Which gives;

(2) [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AB} = \mathbf{\widehat {CD}}[/tex] given

Angle subtended by arc [tex]\widehat {CD}[/tex] at the center = x

Equal arcs subtend equal angles at the center of a circle.

Therefore;

Angle subtended by arc [tex]\mathbf{\widehat {AB}}[/tex] at the center = x

Angle at center = 2 × angle at circumference

Therefore;

x = 2 × 50° = 100°

x = 100°

(3) [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AC} = \mathbf{ 3 \times \widehat {AB}}[/tex] given

By definition, we have;

Angle subtended by [tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] at the center = 3 × Angle subtended by [tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex] at the center

According to circle theorem, we have;

Angle at the center = 2 × Angle at the circumference

Let y represent the angle subtended at the circumference by [tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex], we have;

y = 20°

[tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex] = 2·y

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 3 × [tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex] = 3 × 2·y = 6·y

Therefore;

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 6 × 20° = 120°

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 120°

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 2·x

Therefore;

2·x = 120°

[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{120^{\circ}}{2} = \mathbf{ 60^{\circ}}[/tex]

x = 60°

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 6 = 11 parts

Divide the length of ribbon by 11 to find the value of one part of the ratio

88 cm ÷ 11 = 8 cm ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

5 parts = 5 × 8 cm = 40 cm

6 parts = 6 × 8 cm = 48 cm

Then difference between lengths is 48 cm - 40 cm = 8 cm

longer piece is 8 cm longer than shortest piece.
