6. Kevin got his Barbie kite stuck in tree. He asked Jolin, Zachary and Skylor for help. He claimed it was his sister's kite and she, not Kevin, would cry if the kite was lost forever. Zachary, the bright student that he is, said they should get the
20 ft. ladder from his garage to get Kevin's (oops i mean his sister's) kite down, Zachary couldn't lift the heavy ladder so
he placed the ladder on the ground. Skylor placed the ladder at angle of elevation of 30%. Jolin placed the ladder at an
angle of depression of 60'. How high up the tree will each student reach? Express your answer as an exact answer,

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
