Together, Ashley and Gabby watched a total of 14 hours of television over the weekend. Ashley watched 6 times as many hours as Gabby. How many hours of television did they each watch over the weekend? Write and solve a system of equations by using the substitution method. Be sure to define your variables.
Answer:
The number of times over the Weekend that:
Ashley watched TV = x = 12 hours
Gabby watched TV = y = 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
The number of times
Ashley watched TV = x
Gabby watched TV = y
Together, Ashley and Gabby watched a total of 14 hours of television over the weekend.
= x + y = 14..... Equation 1
x = 14 - y
Ashley watched 6 times as many hours as Gabby.
x = 6y
Using substitution method
We substitute 14 - y for x
14 - y = 6y
14 = 6y + y
14 = 7y
y = 14/7
y = 2 hours
Solving for x
x = 14 - y
x = 14 - 2
x = 12 hours
Therefore:
The number of times over the Weekend that:
Ashley watched TV = x = 12 hours
Gabby watched TV = y = 6 hours

A sporting goods store brought in some new mountain bikes that cost $1,200 each and kayaks that cost $800 each. A total of 32 of these items were acquired , for $30,400 . How many new mountain bikes did the store bring in ? ASAP HELP!
Answer:
12 mountain bikes
Step-by-step explanation:
1200m+800k=30400
m+k=32
k=32-m
Now solving with substitution we get:
1200m+800(32-m)=30400
1200m+25600-800m=30400
400m=4800
m=12

An airplane is flying from New York City to Los Angeles. The distance it travels in miles, d, is related to the time in seconds, t, by the equation d=0.15. How fast is it flying? Do not include units
Answer:
0.15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression that relates the distance and the time with the expression:
d = 0.15t
d is the distance
t is the time
To determine how fast it is flying (Speed), we will need to use the formula
Speed = distance/time
s = d/t
From the given equation we can se that 0.15 = d/t
Comparing this to the general equation, we will see that s = 0.15
Hence the airplane is flying at 0.15

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles would equal 180°.
(7x - 5) + (5x + 19) = 180
Combine like terms.
12x + 14 = 180
Simplify by isolating the variable
12x + 14 = 180
------ -14 ----------
12x = 166
Divide both sides by 12
x = 13.833

A committee must be formed with 4 teachers and 5 students. If there are 7 teachers to choose from, and 15 students, how many different ways could the committee be made?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 10 persons (6 teachers + 4 students) from which a committee of 5 is to be formed. This can be done in 10C5 ways.
The number of ways that a committee can be formed with no students in it is to select 5 teachers out of the pool of 6 teachers available. This can be done in 6C5 ways.
Therefore the total number of ways that the committee can be formed with at least one student in it is 10C5 - 6C5.
10C5 = 252
6C5 = 6
Therefore the required number of ways = 246

What is the length of DE in the image provided? (Please explain so I can understand in the future)
A. DE=4
B. DE=5
C. DE=6
D. DE=7
==========================================================
Explanation:
We have these three facts:
The arc markings on angles C and D indicate those angles are congruent. We can say that angle ACB = angle EDB.Another pair of congruent angles are angle ABC and angle EBD. These are vertical angles. Lastly, we have a pair of congruent sides AB and BE because of the tickmarks.Those three facts allow us to use the AAS (angle angle side) congruence theorem to prove that triangle ABC is congruent to triangle EBD.
Then by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent), we know that AC = DE. Note how 'A' and 'C' are the first and last letters of ABC; similarly, 'E' and 'D' are the first and last letters of EBD. Segment ED is the same as segment DE.
So to find the length of DE, we need to find the length of AC. To do that, we need the value of x.
----------------
Recall earlier that AB = BE. Use this to find x
AB = BE
1.5x = 3x-6
1.5x-3x = -6
-1.5x = -6
x = -6/(-1.5)
x = 4
Now we can find the length of AC
AC = x+3
AC = 4+3
AC = 7
This must mean DE = 7 as well.
Answer:
DE=7

Howie works at a petting zoo. He fed a piglet 1/5 of a bottle of milk then gave 3/4 of what was left to the calf. How much of the bottle of milk did the calf drink
Answer:
[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]th part of the bottle will be drunk by the calf.
Step-by-step explanation:
Part of the bottle fed by the piglet = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Milk left in the bottle = 1 - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5-1}{5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Milk drunk by the calf = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]th of the left part
= [tex]\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{4}{5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]th part of the bottle
Therefore, [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]th part of the bottle will be drunk by the calf.

Which of the following is NOT true?
The answer choices are in the picture below.
Also, it would really help me if you would give a brief explanation to why the answer you chose is correct.
Answer:
Option G
Step-by-step explanation:
Option F
m∠1 + 121 = 180 [Sum of linear angles = 180°]
True.
Option G
121 + m∠2 + 33 = 180
False. Because 121° is not an interior angle of the given triangle.
Option H
33 + m∠1 = 92
True.
Measure of exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of he measure of the non adjacent interior angles.
Option J
121 + 92 + m∠3 = 360°
True.
Sum of the exterior angles of triangle is 180°.

Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Zero Product Property to find the x-intercepts for y=3x2−7x+4
Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex], x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x- intercepts, let y = 0 , that is
3x² - 7x + 4 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 3 × 4 = 12 and sum = - 7
The factors are - 3 and - 4
Use these factors to split the x- term
3x² - 3x - 4x + 4 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
3x(x - 1) - 4(x - 1) = 0 ← factor out (x - 1) from each term
(x - 1)(3x - 4) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
3x - 4 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 4 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
x- intercepts are x = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] , x = 1
([tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex], 0 ), (1, 0 ) ← in coordinate form
