Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2:

4(4 + 2 - 3) - 6 + 3 = 12 - 6 + 3 = 9

x = 3:

4(6 + 3 - 3) - 9 + 3 = 24 - 9 + 3 = 18

Sedbober [7]

First, you must find an equation. You would first find the length of 1 square, and then multiply it by how many rows. Then on the side, you would find the width on one square, and then multiply it by how many columns. Once you find you total length and width, find the perimeter of the whole quilt! Let me know if there is any questions! <span />

gavmur [86]

Answer:

sedan = 26 miles/gallon

truck = 17 miles/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

try to write the text in mathematical format as a system of equations

t=truck s=sedan

$\left \{ {{3t+5s=181} \atop {7t+6s=275}} \right.$

first equation can be written as

t= (181-5s)/3

we can use it in the second equation and rewrite it as

7[(181-5s)/3]+6s = 275

7(181/3 -5/3s) + 6s = 275

1267/3 - 35/3s + 6s = 275

-35/3s + 18/3s = 275-1267/3

-35/3s + 18/3s = 825/3 - 1267/3

-35s + 18s = 825 -1267

-17s = -442 s = 442/17 = 26 sedan has an average of 26 miles/gallon

we use this value of s in the first equation

3t + 5*26=181 3t=181-130 t= 51/3 = 17 truck has an average of 17 miles/gallon

Frank left his house at 7 a.m. and drove to the airport at a speed of 50 mph. Lance left his house at 6 a.m. and drove to the sa

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Lance will arrive at the airport at 10:00 AM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance left his house at 6:00 AM, and drove to the airport, which is 220 miles away, at 55mph; therefore, the time $t$ it takes Lance to cover the distance of 220 miles is

$t = \dfrac{220m}{55mph}$

$t= 4 \: hours.$

Thus, it takes Lance 4 hours to reach the airport, and since he departed at 6:00 AM, he will arrive at the airport at (6+4):00 AM + 10:00 AM.

Jacinta buys 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham. She pays a total of $30, and the turkey costs $1.50 less per pound than the

marissa [1.9K]

Given

jacinta buys 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham & pays a total of $30, turkey costs $1.50 less per pound than the ham.

find out the combined cost of 1 pound of turkey and 1 pound of ham

To proof

As given in the question

jacinta buys 4 pounds of turkey and 2 pounds of ham

total pay by jacinta = $30

let us assume that the price of the ham = x

as given in the question

turkey costs $1.50 less per pound than the ham

turkey costs becomes = x - 1.50

then the equation becomes

30 = 4 (x - 1.50) + 2x

30 = 4x + 2x - 6

36 = 6x

x = 6

thus

ham cost per pound = $6

turkey cost per pound = 6 - 1.50

= $ 4.5

Now find out

cost of 1 pound of turkey + 1 pound of ham = $ 6 + $ 4.5

= $ 10.5

Hence proved
