HELP!!!
Jacob and Paul are playing a game of cards. After the first round, Jacob said that Paul's score would be twice his own score if he earned 7 more points.
Paul responded to Jacob by telling him his score was only 6 points higher then Jacobs.
PART A. write a system of equations to represent each of the boys statements. Be sure to specify what your variables represent.
PART B. If they both are correct. How many points did each if the boys score?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. y=x2 - 7

   y=x + 6

B. 7

Answer 2

Answer:

A.) 2x = y + 7

     y = x + 6

The variable "x" would represent Jacob's score and the variable "y" would represent Paul's score in each equation. In the first equation, 2x would represent Jacob's score multiplied by 2, and 7 would represent the amount of points needed in order for Paul to have double Jacob's score. In the second equation, 6 would represent the amount of points needed in order for Jacob's score to be equal to Paul's score.

B.) They are both correct so Jacob's score is 13 points and Paul's is 19.

6 + 7 = 13 (the difference between scores in both equations)

6 would represent the amount that Paul is above Jacob's score and 7 would represent the amount that Paul would have to score to get two times Jacob's score. So, this shows that Paul would have 26 points if he had double the amount of Jacob's score and 26 ÷ 2 = 13.

Hope This Helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

There are actually 2 x-intercepts of the parabola. You can find them simply by looking along the x-axis and seeing where the lines of the parabola touch the axis, so -3 and 1.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

At x-intercept y = 0

So, parabola intersect x-axis at two places (1 , 0) and (-3 , 0)

Answer:

It's not proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 2 days are proportional because, they travel at an increment of 60 miles an hour.

But, on the third day, it is not proportional because they travel at an increment of 90 miles an hour.

360 / 4 = 90

120 / 2 = 60

60 / 1 = 60

Answer:

The answer would be yes and no!! But, it would be no!

Step-by-step Explanation:

Yes: On Monday and Tuesday, those would be proportional because they are just counting by 60´s. 60 plus 60 would give you 120.

No: On Wednesday, this ¨person¨ traveled 360 miles in 3 hours. Now, you aren´t counting by 60´s anymore. Even though you started out counting by the 60´s, doesn´t mean you will finish like that.

60´s:

1 hour = 60 mi

2 hours = 120 mi

3 hours should be = 180 miles, not 360 Because:

360 mi would be equal to 6 hours. Do you see where I´m going with this?

Hope that helps you so you can put it in a mathematical way. Have a great day!!

I need help with these 2 problems I cant figure out.

Answers

I started by labeling the right angle (Angle C) 90º. Next, I wrote down everything in one equation.

2x + 90 + 3x - 20 = 180º (180 degrees in a triangle)

Next, I add 20 on both sides.

2x + 90 + 3x = 200º

I combine like terms (2x and 3x)

5x + 90 = 200º

I subtract 90 from both sides.

5x = 110º

Divide 110 by 5 to get x.

x = 22

======

For problem two, I label all the angles I know.

49º + 80º + r = 180º

I add 80 and 49.

129º + r = 180º

I subtract 180 and 129 and get 51º, which is your angle for R.

For angle X, you know that angle R plus angle X equals half of a circle, which is 180º

We know from before that 129º is 180º without R, so X is 129º

Larry works for a tree farmer and needs to plant new saplings (young trees). He can plant 27 saplings per hour. He needs to plant 178 total saplings and has already planted 16 saplings.

Which equation and answer shows the number of hours (h) it will take for him to plant the rest of the saplings?

Answers

Answer:

27h+16=178 I believe would work as an equation for this problem

Step-by-step explanation:

The required time to plant the rest of the saplings is 6 hours, and 27 + 16 = 178 is the required expression.

What are equation models?

The equation model is defined as the model of the given situation in the form of an equation using variables and constants.

Here,
Let the number of hours be h,
He can plant 27 saplings per hour.
He needs to plant 178 total saplings and has already planted 16 saplings.
So, according to the quesiton,
27h + 16 = 178,
27h = 162
h = 162/27

h = 6

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all
fractions
2x - y = 2

Answers

Answer: y = 2x - 2

Explanation: The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y = mx + b
Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation.
-y = 2 - 2x
Multiply each term in -y = 2 - 2x by -1
(-y) . -1 = 2 . -1 + (-2x) . -1
Multiply (-y) . -1
Multiply -1 by -1
Multiply y by 1
y = 2 . -1 + (-2x) . -1
Simplify each term
Multiply 2 by -1
y = -2 + (-2x) . -1
Multiply -1 by -2
y = -2 + 2x

What is the equation of the line in Slope-Intercept Form?

A)y=1/3x-6

B) y=3x-6

C)y=1/3x+6

D) y=3x+6

Answers

Answer:    A)  y =  ¹/₃ x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:  

        For us to write the equation for this line, we need to (1) find the slope of the line, and (2) use one of the points to write an equation:  

       The question gives us two points, (-6, -8) and (-3,-7), from which we can find the slope and later the equation of the line.

 

Finding the Slope  

The slope of the line (m) = (-8 - (-7)) ÷ (-6 - (-3))    

                                          =  -1 ÷  (-3)  

                                          =   ¹/₃  

Finding the Equation

We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:  

                                 ⇒  y - (-7) =   ¹/₃ (x - (-3))  

  we could also transform this into the slope-intercept form ( y = mx + c)

                                   since  y + 7 =   ¹/₃ (x + 3)

                                         ⇒     y + 7 =  ¹/₃ x + 1

                                                                                  ∴  y =  ¹/₃ x - 6
