PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Jesse and Amir were assigned the same book to read. Jesse started reading on Saturday, and he is reading 30 pages a day. Amir didn't start until Sunday, but he is reading 35 pages a day.

How many days will it take Amir to catch up to Jesse, and how many pages will they each have read?

1. Write an equation to represent the number of pages Amir has read. Use x to represent the number of days Amir has been reading and y to represent the number of pages he has read.

2. Write an equation to represent the number of pages Jesse has read.

Using x, the number of days Amir has been reading, write an expression to represent the number of days Jesse has been reading. Remember that Jesse started reading one day before Amir. Use this expression to write an equation for the number of pages Jesse has read. Let y represent the number of pages read.

3. Write the system of equations using your answers from questions 1 and 2.

4. You will use substitution to solve this system. Which variable will you substitute for and why? Show the equation that results from the substitution.

5. Solve the system of equations. Show your work.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a 8 main wyas 3 colors, 3 numbers, head or tails

if you are not spinning red it's 2 colors you can get

if you want to flip tails that is one

if you don't want to spin an even number there is 2 other numbers

2+2+1=5

Answer:

The length of the other leg is 24 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, let's think about the equation that gives us the hypotenuse in the first place, the Pythagorean theorem (which only works on right triangles!).

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

The a^2 is one side of the triangle that we know and the b^2 is the other, the c^2 is the hypotenuse we are trying to solve.

Seeing that in this question, we can put 10, in the place of a^2, and 26 in the place of c^2

[tex]10^2+b^2=26^2[/tex]

That's what we have down the information we have, but now we'll have to do some rearranging to solve for the other leg's length. First let's square the numbers, 10^2 = 100 and 26^2= 676!

[tex]100+b^2=676[/tex]

Now we need to get b^2 by itself so we can solve it! Let's subtract 100 from both sides to do so,

[tex]100-100+b^2=676-100[/tex]

[tex]b^2=676-100[/tex]

[tex]b^2=576[/tex]

Now we got b^2 = 576!

But that's not our answer we have to square root it to get rid of the squared part!

[tex]\sqrt{b^2} = \sqrt{576}[/tex]

and when we do that we get,

[tex]b=24[/tex]

The length of the other leg is 24 meters!

The length of the other leg is 24 m.

Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

We have,

A right triangle has a leg length of 10 meters and a hypotenuse that is

26 meters.

The length of the other leg = x

We will apply the Pythagorean theorem.

x² + 10² = 26²

x² + 100 = 676

x² = 676 - 100

x² = 576

x = 24

Thus,

The length of the other leg is 24 m.

Answer:

Required Expression : 7·(s + d) - 25

Step-by-step explanation :

Cost of each plant both buys = $7

No. of plants Stephanie wants to buy = s

Total cost of plants bought by Stephanie = 7·s

No. of plants Diego wants to buy = d

Total cost of plants bought by Diego = 7·d

Total cost = 7·s + 7·d

                = 7·(s + d)

Discount applied through coupon = $25

So, Total cost of all their plants with discount = 7·(s + d) - 25

Answer:

3/4 is equivalent to 9/12,

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that 3/4 is equivalent to 9/12, because 3×12=36 and 4×9=36. A simple way to look at how to check for equivalent fractions is to do what is called “cross-multiply”, which means multiple the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction.

Answer:

I think the answer is 3/4

Answer:  12.90 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

well i took the tax off which is 50cents since its the CD's

.50+.50= $1..00

so 26.80-1.00 = 25.80

divide tht by 2 u get 12.9 the price of one CD

Answer:

$12.90

Step-by-step explanation:

0.50*2=1 (taxes for both of them)

26.80 - 1=25.80(the tax being cut off)

25.80 divided by 2= 12.90(dividing the number without taxes with 2 getting the amount of the 2 cds without taxes)

X=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Use pythagoras theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

6^2+8^2=c^2

c^2=100

c= square root of 100

c/x=10

Well, there needs to be an equation.

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- intercept is where the line crosses the x- axis. Let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

5(0) = 2x - 1, that is

0 = 2x - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )

1 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

The x- intercept is ( , 0 )

The y- intercept is where the line crosses the y- axis. Let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

5y = 2(0) - 1

5y = - 1 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = -

The y- intercept is (0, -  )

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope that helped you

Answer:

Hello!

The formula for percentage increase is:

Percent Increase = {( New Value - Old Value) / Old Value × 100}

Substitute = {( 566.60 - 550) / 550 × 100]

Solve:

566.60 - 550 = 16.6

16.6 / 550 = 0.0301818182

0.0301818182 × 100 = 3.0181818182

You may round that to 3.1%

So, Mr. Dawkins' salary increased by about 3.1%
