If

, then


. So, in the first gap you can write 5 and in the second you can write -4.
Since

, the minimum value of y is when

. The solution of the last equation is x=-5 and then y=-4 -- these are numbers, which you can write in the third and fourth gaps.
Let us say that the procedure of completely filling up the
pool with water is called “1 job”. Therefore the rates of the equipment in
doing the job would be:
<span>Rate of handheld hose = 1 job / 8 minutes ---> 1</span>
<span>Rate of lawn sprinkler = r --->
2</span>
<span>Rate of the two combines = 1 job/ 5 minutes ---> 3</span>
So we are to find the equation to use, in this case, we
simply have to add equations 1 and 2 to get 3:
1 / 8 + r = 1 / 5
Multiplying both sides by 5:
<span>(5 / 8) + 5 r = 1 --->

Answer:
2.35 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find the attachment for visual understanding.
We are told that the library is 1.75 miles directly north from the school and the park is 0.6 miles directly south of the school.
To find distance between library and park we will add distance of library from school to the distance of park from school.
Therefore, library is 2.35 miles away from park.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Miguel is playing a game
The box contains 4 chips, 2 with number 1, and other two differntly numbered as 3 and 5.
OUt of these 4, 2 chips are drawn
P(drawing same number) = 2C2/4C2 =
Prob (drawing differnt numbers) = 1-1/6 =
Hence prob of winning 2 dollars = 
Prob of losing 1 dollar = 
b) Expected value = sum of prob x amount won
= 
c) Miguel can expect to lose 1/2 dollars for every game he plays
d) If it is to be a fair game expected value =0
i.e. let the amount assigned be s
Then 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: it would take 20 weeks before the amount in both accounts would be the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of weeks that it will take either Ruben and Shawna to have the same amount of money in their account.
Let y represent the total amount that would be in Shawna's account after x weeks
Let z represent the total amount that would be in Ruben's account after x weeks
Shawna has $750 in the bank. She deposits $37.50 each week. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be
y = 37.5x + 750
Ruben has $850 in the bank. He deposits his paycheck of $102.75 every Monday,and he spends about $70.25 each week.. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be
z = 850 + 102.75x - 70.25x
z = 850 + 32.5x
To determine the number of weeks before the amount in both accounts will becomes the same, we would equate y to z. It becomes
37.5x + 750= 850 + 32.5x
37.5x - 32.5x = 850 - 750
5x = 100
x = 100/5 = 20
