Two consecutive whole numbers is 57. What are the two numbers?(hint: Let n represent the first number. Then n + 1 is the next consecutive whole number.

[tex]8x - 7y = 23 \\ 8x - 23 = 7y \\y = \frac{8}{7} x - \frac{23}{7} [/tex]

The solution of the equation, when it is solved for y, has one variable term x with coefficient 8/7 and one constant term 23/7, 8/7x-23/7.

The solution of an equation is the value of the variable of the equation, for which the equation is satisfied.

To solve an equation for its variable, isolate the variable on one side of the equation using the mathematical operations.

The given expression is,

[tex]8x - 7y = 23[/tex]

The expression has two variables, x and y. To solve it for y, subtract 8x from both sides,

[tex]8x - 7y -8x= 23-8x\\-7y=23-8x[/tex]

Divide with number 7 both sides and change the sign of the equation,

[tex]y=-\left(\dfrac{23-8x}{7}\right)\\y=\dfrac{8x-23}{7}\\y=\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{23}{7}[/tex]

Thus, the solution of the equation, when it is solved for y, has one variable term x with coefficient 8/7 and one constant term 23/7, 8/7x-23/7.

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{275}{62}[/tex] , [tex]y=\frac{127}{31}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to make the X's the same:

[tex]24x-15y=45[/tex]

[tex]24x+16y=172[/tex]

Because the signs of the X's are the same we subtract the 2 equations to make:

(I put the second one on top of the 1st)

[tex]31y=127[/tex]

So:

[tex]y=\frac{127}{31}[/tex]

Substitute y into either equation 1 or 2:

(I chose equation 1)

[tex]8x-5(\frac{127}{31})=15[/tex]

[tex]8x=5(\frac{127}{31}) + 15[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{5(\frac{127}{31})}{8}[/tex]

So:

[tex]x=\frac{275}{62}[/tex]

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b, where m is the slope, b is the y-int and y and x are variables.

y=1/2x+0 is the answer but you dont need to add the 0.

To get the slop you do RISE/RUN which in this case is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: Sarah got 60 questions correct, 15 questions wrong, and she got 20% of the questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's solve for how many questions Sarah got correct.

80% as a fraction can be simplified as [tex]\frac{8}{10}[/tex]. To find how many questions Sarah answered correctly, we can set up a proprtional relationship as follows:

[tex]\frac{8}{10}=\frac{?}{75}[/tex]

Next, after we cross multiply, 8 X 75 = 600, and 600 ÷ 10 = 60

So, Sarah got 60 out of 75 questions correct.

To find how many she missed, we can simply subtract 60 from 75 to get 15.

So, Sarah got 15 out of 75 questions wrong.

Finally, to find the percentage of the questions that Sarah got wrong, we can use the 15 out of 75 incorrect questions that we found earlier to create a percentage.

15 ÷ 75 = 0.2

0.2 X 100 = 20

So, Sarah got 20% of the questions wrong.

=====================================================

Work Shown:

(height)/(shadow length) = (height)/(shadow length)

(5 ft)/(6.5 ft) = (x ft)/(26 ft)

5/(6.5) = x/26

5*26 = 6.5*x

130 = 6.5x

6.5x = 130

x = 130/(6.5)

x = 20

The palm tree is 20 feet tall, which is the same height as a 2 story building (assuming each floor is 10 ft).

The equation showing the relationship between w and t is [tex]w = 4t[/tex]

From the table, we have the following points:

(0,0) and (1,4)

Start by calculating the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{4 -0}{1 -0}[/tex]

Simplify the numerator and the denominator

[tex]m = \frac{4}{1}[/tex]

Divide 4 by 1

[tex]m = 4[/tex]

The equation is then calculated as:

[tex]w = m(t - t_1) + w_1[/tex]

This gives

[tex]w = 4(t - 0) + 0[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]w = 4t[/tex]

Hence, the equation is [tex]w = 4t[/tex]

The reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units

Find the diagram of the question attached. The given triangle ABC and BDE are similar triangles.

Using the similarity theorem of a triangle, this is expressed as:

Using the pythagoras theorem to get the length of AC:

AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2

5^2 + AC^2 + 4^2

AC^2 = 25 - 16

AC^2 = 9

AC= 3

Inequalities are used to represent unequal expressions.

The inequalities are given as:

[tex]x - 99 \le -104[/tex]

[tex]x - 51 \le -43[/tex]

[tex]150 + x \le 144[/tex]

[tex]75 < 69 - x[/tex]

Start by solving for x in all the inequalities

[tex]x - 99 \le -104[/tex]

Make x the subject: Add 99 to both sides

[tex]x \le 99 - 104[/tex]

[tex]x \le -5[/tex]

[tex]x - 51 \le -43[/tex]

Make x the subject: Add 51 to both sides

[tex]x \le 51 - 43[/tex]

[tex]x \le 8[/tex]

[tex]150 + x \le 144[/tex]

Make x the subject: Subtract 150 from both sides

[tex]x \le 144 - 150[/tex]

[tex]x \le -6[/tex]

[tex]75 < 69 - x[/tex]

Make x the subject: Add x to both sides, and subtract 75 from both sides

[tex]x < 69 - 75[/tex]

[tex]x < -6[/tex]

Hence, the solutions to the inequalities are: [tex]x \le -5[/tex], [tex]x \le 8[/tex], [tex]x \le -6[/tex] and [tex]x < -6[/tex]

The approximate percentage error on the weight of the beaker is 5%

Percent error is the difference between estimated value and the actual value in comparison to the actual value and is expressed as a percentage. In other words, the percent error is the relative error multiplied by 100.

Error = Actual value - estimated value =

Actual value = 82g, Estimated value = 78g

Error = 82 - 78 which is 4

percent error = error/estimated x 100%

percent error = 4/78 x 100 which is 5%

Answer:

K12 Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for slope intercept form is y = mx + b.

An example would be y = 3x + 4 or y = -2/5x - 4

The values of a and be for which x = 4 is a solution of the equation shown.

ax + 4 = 5x + b are infinitely many

The given equation is:

ax  +  4  =  5x   +  b

To find the values of a and b in the equation at x = 4, substitute x = 4 into the equation

4a  +  4  =  5(4)  +  b

4a  +  4   =  20  +  b

Collect like terms

4a  -  b  =  20  -  4

4a  -  b   =   16

Since there are two unknowns in just a single equation, the equation has more than 1 solution.
