Answer:
d) 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one: write your equations
"A student spends no more than 2 hours on his math and English homework." Our sign will be less than or equal to. Our operation will be addition since the question used "and" to connect math and English.
m=x; e=y
Equation a. x + y ≤ 2
Equation b. x = 2y (2y because math takes twice as long, therefore, we can multiply y by 2) Remember: x or y by itself has a coefficient of 1.
Step two: Substitute x into equation a.
x=2y so our new equation is: 2y + y ≤ 2
Step three: isolate y and solve
2y + y= 3y
3y ≤ 2
Next, isolate y by dividing both sides by 3.
3y/3 ≤ 2/3
y ≤ 2/3
There is your answer, English equals y, so the maximum time he can take on his English work is 2/3 of an hour or 40 minutes.
Full question: A student spends no more than 2 hours on his math and English homework. If math takes about twice as long as English, what is the maximum time that the student can spend on English?
y=−2x+2
These are the last two steps of his work.
6x−6x+6=6
6=6
Which statement about this linear system must be true?
a) x must equal 6
b) y must equal 6
c) there is no solution to this system
d) there are infinitely many solutions to this system
(A) 240 (B) 220 (C) 280 (D) 210
Answer:
It is A
Step-by-step explanation:
The square route of 174 is 13.190906. Didn't use a calculator.
Answer:
A. (0,445)
D.(118,209)
E.(172,101)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that we have in this problem is:
where
d is the number of dimes
n is the number of nickels
$22.25 is the total amount of money collected by Diego in the jar.
In order to find which pairs of values can be solutions to the equation, we just need to substitute each pair (d,n) into the left term on the equation, and check if the result is 22.25. Let's do it:
A. (0,445)
--> YES
B. (0.50,435)
--> NO
C. (233,21)
--> NO
D.(118,209)
--> YES
E.(172,101)
--> YES
So the correct pairs are:
A. (0,445)
D.(118,209)
E.(172,101)
