.
The linear equation that determines when the two populations were equal is
✔ –19.76x + 227 = –92.57x + 1052
.
The solution is x =
✔ 11.33
years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2j -20 ≤ 46
Step-by-step explanation:
"20 less than double the number Jason [hit]" can be represented by 2j-20.
We are told that 46 is no fewer than this value, so it is greater than or equal to this value:
46 ≥ 2j -20
2j -20 ≤ 46 . . . . . swapping sides to match answer choices
Answer:
x=2, y=3.
Step-by-step explanation:
0.2x + 0.3y = 1.3
0.4x + 0.5y = 2.3
From the first equation y = (1.3 - 0.2x) / 0.3
Substituting in second equation:
0.4x + 0.5(1.3 - 0.2x) / 0.3 = 2.3
Multiply through by 0.3:
0.12x + 0.5(1.3 - 0.2x) = 0.69
0.12x + 0.65 - 0.1x = 0.69
0.02x = 0.04
x = 2.
Substituting for x in equation 1:
0.2* 2 + 0.3y = 1.3
0.4 + 0.3y = 1.3
0.3y = 1.3 - 0.4 = 0.9
y = 3.
Check in equation 2:
0.4 * 2 + 0.5(3) = 0.8 + 1.5 = 2.3.
- Correct.
<u>Given</u>:
The given balanced scale is represented by the equation
----- (1)
We need to determine the process that balance the scale.
<u>Process to balance the scale:</u>
Given that the if one x block is subtracted from the right side and three numbered blocks are subtracted from the left side.
Thus, the equation (1) becomes

----- (2)
Now, to balance the scale, let us subtract one block x from the left side and subtract three numbered blocks from the right side.
Thus, the equation (2) becomes,

------ (3)
Thus, the equation (3) is the same as the equation (1).
Hence, the process required to balance the scale is to subtract one x block from the left side and subtract three numbered blocks from the right side.
Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.
