2 times a number added to another number is 25. 3 times the first number minus the other number is 20. Let the first number be x. Let the second number be y. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]2x + y = 25 [*]3x - y = 20 [/LIST] Since we have matching opposite coefficients for y (1 and -1), we can add both equations together and eliminate a variable. (2 + 3)x + (1 - 1)y = 25 + 20 Simplifying, we get: 5x = 45 [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=5x%3D45&pl=Solve']Typing this equation into the search engine[/URL], we get: [B]x = 9[/B] To find y, we plug in x = 9 into equation (1) or (2). Let's choose equation (1): 2(9) + y = 25 y + 18 = 25 [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=y%2B18%3D25&pl=Solve']Typing this equation into our search engine[/URL], we get: [B]y = 7[/B] So we have (x, y) = (9, 7) Let's check our work for equation (2) to make sure this system works: 3(9) - 7 ? 20 27 - 7 ? 20 20 = 20 <-- Good, we match!

3 to the power of 2 times 3 to the power of x equals 3 to the power of 7. Write this out: 3^2 * 3^x = 3^7 When we multiply matching coefficients, we add exponents, so we have: 3^(2 + x) = 3^7 Therefore, 2 + x = 7. To solve this equation for x, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=2%2Bx%3D7&pl=Solve']type it into our search engine[/URL] and we get: x = [B]5[/B]

admission to the school fair is $2.50 for students and $3.75 for others. if 2848 admissions were collected for a total of 10,078.75, how many students attended the fair Let the number of students be s and the others be o. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]o + s = 2848 [*]3.75o + 2.50s = 10078.75 [/LIST] Since we have no coefficients for equation 1, let's solve this the fast way using substitution. Rearrange equation 1 by subtracting o from each side to isolate s [LIST=1] [*]o = 2848 - s [*]3.75o + 2.50s = 10078.75 [/LIST] Now substitute equation 1 into equation 2: 3.75(2848 - s) + 2.50s =10078.75 To solve for s, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=3.75%282848-s%29%2B2.50s%3D10078.75&pl=Solve']type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get: s = [B]481[/B]

Bob bought 10 note books and 4 pens for 18$. Bill bought 6 notebooks and 4 pens for 12$. Find the price of one note book and one pen. Let the price of each notebook be n. Let the price of each pen be p. We're given two equations: [LIST=1] [*]10n + 4p = 18 [*]6n + 4p = 12 [/LIST] Since we have matching coefficients for p, we subtract equation 1 from equation 2: (10 - 6)n + (4 - 4)p = 18 - 12 Simplifying and cancelling, we get: 4n = 6 [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=4n%3D6&pl=Solve']Type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get: [B]n = 1.5[/B] Now, substitute this value for n into equation (2): 6(1.5) + 4p = 12 Multiply through: 9 + 4p = 12 [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=9%2B4p%3D12&pl=Solve']Type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get: [B]p = 0.75[/B]

DeAndre is a spelunker (someone who explores caves). One day DeAndre is exploring a cave that has a series of ladders going down into the depths. Every ladder is exactly 10 feet tall, and there is no other way to descend or ascend (the other paths in the cave are flat). DeAndre starts at 186 feet in altitude, and reaches a maximum depth of 86 feet in altitude.Write an equation for DeAndre's altitude, using x to represent the number of ladders DeAndre used (hint: a ladder takes DeAndre down in altitude, so the coefficient should be negative). Set up a function A(x) for altitude, where x is the number of ladders used. Each ladder takes DeAndre down 10 feet, so this would be -10x. And DeAndre starts at 186 feet, so we'd have: [B]A(x) = 186 - 10x[/B]

Identify the slope in the equation? c. Calculate the total cost of the ride? 2. With the same charges as #1, how many miles could you go with $50, if you also gave a $7.50 tip? (Challenge Question! Hint, you only have a $50, exactly, with you a. Cost Equation C(m) for m miles is as follows: [B]C(m) = 1.57m + 5 [/B] b. Slope of the equation is the coefficient for m, which is [B]1.57 [/B] c.

If you give a 7.50 tip, we subtract the tip from the $50 to start with a reduced amount: 50 - 7.50 = 42.50 So C(m) = 42.50 1.57m + 5 = 42.50 To solve this equation for m, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=1.57m%2B5%3D42.50&pl=Solve']type it in our search engine[/URL] and we get: m = 23.89 Since we deal in full miles, we round our answer down to m = [B]23[/B]
