Marion and Stefan played a game called "Go." Marion won five times the difference between the number of games Stefan won and the number four. If Marion won fifteen games, then how many games did Stefan win?
Answer:
1 game
15/5=3
4-3=1
Hope it helps
please follow me
Using a system of equations, it is found that Stefan won 7 games.
In our system, we have that:
x is the number of games Marion won.y is the number of games Stefan won.Marion won five times the difference between the number of games Stefan won and the number four, hence:
[tex]x = 5(y - 4)[/tex]
Marion won 15 games, hence [tex]x = 15[/tex], and:
[tex]15 = 5(y - 4)[/tex]
[tex]y - 4 = 3[/tex]
[tex]y = 7[/tex]
Stefan won 7 games.

8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.
What is the number?
OA. 12
OB. 4
OC. 16
OD. 48
Answer:
it's either A (12) or B(4) but I think it's 12
Step-by-step explanation:
if we make it into an equation, we get
8(x-6)=4x
8x-48=4x
-48=-4x
-12=-x
x=12
the reason why it might be 4 as well is if we switch the order
8(6-x)=4x
48-8x=4x
48=12x
x=4
So both of those could be correct, but I'm thinking that because they said between a number and 6, then x goes first, so therefore, I think it is 12

Solve the following system of equations. x + y + 8z = 16
2x + 7z = 19
4x - 4y + 4z = 4
a. x = 1,y = 2,z = 2
b. x= 2,y = 2,z = 1
c. x = 6,y = 2,z = 1
d. x = 13,y = 11,z = -1
By substitution, we will see that the solution of the system is:
x = 13, y = 11, z = -1
The correct option is D.
How to solve the system of equations?
Here we have a system of 3 equations:
x + y + 8z = 16
2x + 7z = 19
4x - 4y + 4z = 4
I will solve it by substitution, first, let's simplify the equations. Here we can divide the third equation by 4 so we remove all the common factors, then the system becomes:
x + y + 8z = 16
2x + 7z = 19
x - y + z = 1
Now, I will isolate x on the second equation:
x = (19 - 7z)/2 = (19/2) - (7/2)*z = 9.5 - 3.5*z
Now we can replace that on the other two equations:
(9.5 - 3.5*z) + y + 8z = 16
(9.5 - 3.5*z) - y + z = 1
Rewriting the system we get:
y + 4.5z = 6.5
-y - 2.5z = -8.5
Now we can isolate y on the first equation:
y = 6.5 - 4.5z
Replacing that on the other equation we get:
-( 6.5 - 4.5z) - 2.5z = -8.5
-6.5 + 4.5z - 2.5z = -8.5
2z = -8.5 + 6.5 = -2
z = -2/2 = -1
Then the value of y is:
y = 6.5 - 4.5z = 6.5 - 4.5*(-1) = 11
And the value of x is:
x = 9.5 - 3.5*z = 9.5 - 3.5*(-1) = 13
So the solution of the system is:
x = 13, y = 11, z = -1
The correct option is D.

Select two ratios that are equivalent to 2:9
Choose 2 correct answers
Answer:
4:18 and 6:27
Step-by-step explanation:
Jace and his children went into a bakery and he bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.75 and each brownie costs $3. He bought twice as many cookies as brownies. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of cookies, x,x, and the number of brownies, y,y, that Jace bought.
Answer:
(9, 18) (3, 6) Plz correct me if wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.
Let x represent the number of cookies and y represent the number of brownies.
Since he bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.75 and each brownie costs $3. hence:
0.75x + 3y = 9 (1)
Also, he bought twice as many cookies as brownies, hence:
x = 2y
x - 2y = 0 (2)
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives x = 4, y = 2
Hence Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.

x+y = 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7[tex]y^{2}[/tex]+[tex]x^{2}[/tex]=64x+y=4First, we isolate the variable on the second equation so that we can have an x solution to plug in:
x=-y+4Now, we plug this in to the first equation:
[tex]7(-y+4)^{2} +(-y+4)^{2} =64[/tex]
We can now put the 7 into the parentheses and then square root the equation:
[tex]\sqrt{(-7y+28)^{2}} +\sqrt{(-y+4)^{2}} =\sqrt{64}\\-7y+28-y+4=8\\-8y=40\\y=-40[/tex]
We then plug this in to the original equation to find x
[tex]x+-40=4\\x=-36[/tex]
This means y=-40 and x=-36. I believe that's what you were asking. Let me know if it is something else

True or False: The Commutative Property of Addition states that for all expressions a and b , ab = ba.
According to the Commutative Property of Addition, ab = ba for all expressions a and b: FALSE
What is the Commutative Property of Addition?According to the commutative property of addition, altering the order of addends has no impact on the sum. Here's an illustration: 4 + 2 = 2 + 4 4 + 2 = 2 + 4 4+2=2+4. The addition and multiplication arithmetic operations are covered by the commutative property. This implies that the outcome of adding or multiplying two numbers remains unchanged if the order or position of the numbers is changed. For instance, 4 + 5 equals 9, and 5 + 4 equals 9.According to the Commutative Property of Addition, rearranging the addends has no impact on the sum.
a+b=b+aTherefore, the statement "according to the Commutative Property of Addition, ab = ba for all expressions a and b" is FALSE
