2+number won over 9+number played=1/2
number won=number played (number played means how many more past 9)

so
if n=number won=number played then\frac{2+n}{9+n}= \frac{1}{2}
times both sides by (2)(9+n)
2(2+n)=9+n
distribute
4+2n=9+n
minus n from both sides
4+n=9
minus 4 from both sides
n=5

answer is 5
test
2+5=7
9+5=14
7/14=1/2
true

n=5

A coordinate grid with 2 lines. The first line is labeled y equals negative StartFraction 7 over 4 EndFraction x plus StartFract
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

1) (2.2, -1.4)

2) (1.33, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1)

Two lines, with their corresponding equations are given and we have to find the solution to the system of equations.

The given lines are:

Equation of Line 1:

y=\frac{-7}{4}x+\frac{5}{2}

This line passes through the points: (0, 2.5) , (2.2, -1.4)

Equation of Line 2:

y=\frac{3}{4}x-3

This line passes through the points (0, -3) , (2.2, -1.4)

By looking at the graph/given data we have to find the solution of these linear equations.

Remember that the solution of linear equations is an ordered pair, through which both the lines pass i.e. the point at which both the given lines intersect is the solution of the linear equations.

From the given data we can see that both the lines pass through one common point, (2.2, -1.4). Since, both lines pass through this point, this means this is the point of intersection of the lines and hence there solution.

So, the answer to this questions is (2.2, -1.4)

Question 2)

The given equations are:

y = 1.5x - 1                                        Equation 1

y = 1                                                  Equation 2

We can solve these equations by method of substitution.

Substituting the value of y from Equation 2, in Equation 1, we get:

1 = 1.5x - 1

1 + 1 = 1.5x

2 = 1.5x

x = 2/1.5

x = 1.33

y = 1

Thus, the solution of the given linear equations is (1.33, 1)

Susie has $95 to spend on renting snorkeling gear at the beach. There is a $15 flat service fee to rent the snorkeling gear alon
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can actually solve this problem simply as if it were an equation instead of an inequality. We have:

15 + 8h ≤ 95

Subtract 15 from both sides:

8h ≤ 95 - 15

8h ≤ 80

Divide by 8 from both sides:

h ≤ 80/8

h ≤ 10

So, the number of hours cannot exceed 10, which means the maximum number of hours Susie can rent is 10 hours.
