Does a two-digit number exist such that the digits sum to 9 and when the digits are reversed the resulting number is 9 greater than the original number? identify the system of equations that models the given scenario. t + u = 9 10t + u = 10u + t – 9 t + u = 9 10t + u = 10u + t t + u = 9 tu = ut + 9

The answer would be "t + u = 9 and 10t + u = 10u + t - 9". This can be found if you replaced t with 4 and u with 5. Adding the 2 digits would give you 9, and using the formula "10t + u = 10u + t - 9". Replace t and u with 4 and 5 then simplify. 10*4 + 5 = 10*5 + 4 - 9. Simplifying you'd get 45 = 54 - 9 or 45 = 45 which make the statement true. Thus making "t + u = 9 and 10t + u = 10u + t - 9" the answer.

I hope this helps!

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
