5x+3y=18 and 3x-3y=15 solve for y and x using elimination method

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4.125 or [tex]4\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

y = -0.875 or [tex]-\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3y = 18

3x - 3y = 15

3y and -3y can be cancled out becuase + and - cancel out and they both have 3y in them. We don't have to switch any signs in this case. You can just add them all exept 3y and -3y becuase they will be canceled out.

8x = 33

x = 4.125

Now we know what x is. We need to figure out what y is now. To figure out y chose an equation from the problem and plug in the x value. Lets chose 3x - 3y = 15.

3(4.125) - 3y = 15

12.375 - 3y = 15

-3y = 2.625

y = -0.875

Now we know what y is.  I hope this helps :)

Answers

Answer:

Cube the scale factor 0.25. Then multiply the volume of the box by 0.015625.

Answer:

Since the dimensions have a proportional relationship, the new volume can be calculated using the original volume and the scale factor. The new volume will be the cube of the change, which is 1

The decimal equivalent for 9/5 without doing 9 divided by 5 is 4.5

How to convert from decimal to fraction?

For conversion from decimal to fraction, we write it in the form a/b such that the result of the fraction comes as the given decimal. Usually, to get the decimal of the form a.bcd, we count how many digits are there after the decimal point (if its finite), then we write 10 raised to that many power as denominator, and the considered number without any decimal point as numerator.

WE are given that Ellena knows that 1/5 written as a decimal is 0.2.

Thus  Ellema use this information to find the decimal equivalent for 9/5 without doing 9 divided by 5

By multiplying 0.2 by 9 we can get the decimal equivalent of 9/5.

0.2 x 9 = 4.5

Hence, the decimal equivalent for 9/5 without doing 9 divided by 5 is 4.5

I need help ASAP!!!!!!!! PLEASE CORRECT ANSWER!
A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC below is equal to the measure of the exterior angle.

A triangle ABC is shown. The base of the triangle extends into a straight line. The angle formed between this straight line and the edge of the triangle is marked as w. The angle adjacent to w is marked as z, and the other two angles inside the triangle are marked as x and y.
Step 1: m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)
Step 2: m∠w − m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)
Step 3: Therefore, m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = m∠w + m∠z
Step 4: So, m∠x + m∠y = m∠w

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected? (5 points)

Select one:
a. Step 1; it should be m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of corresponding angles)
b. Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)
c. Step 1; it should be m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)
d. Step 2; it should be m∠w + m∠z = 90 degrees (alternate exterior angle)

Step-by-step explanation:

Repeating Decimal: a decimal where a number or a pattern of numbers repeats forever

For example, 0.2222... or 0.671671....  (The "..." means that it repeats like that forever)

A. 3/7=  0.142857142857142857... (6 repeating digits)  This is a repeating decimal because the last six digits continue forever

B. 3/4=0.75. This number is not a repeating decimal because a repeating decimal goes on forever, while this only has two decimal places.

C. 1/9= 0.11111... This is a repeating decimal because it goes on forever and has a pattern (all are 1s)

D. 5/11=0.454545... This is also a repeating decimal because the last two digits repeat forever.

There is probably something wrong with the question (or your unit) because three of these numbers are, in fact, repeating decimals. If I were you, I would ask your teacher (it gets you respect from the teacher=more chance that they'll be lenient with you)

But if you really don't want to, I would go with "C" because it only has one repeating decimal place, and your curriculum probably says that a repeating decimal is only one digit.

2. 240 + 241 + 242 = 723

Step-by-step explanation:

J= 30- 12= 18+2= 20

F= 30-2=28

H=30+12=42

2.

240 + 241 + 242 = 723

1. Jane has $40 to begin with
Fay has $32 to begin with
Henry has $18 to begin with

They all end with the same amount which must be 30.

40-12=28.- Jane 18+12=30- Henry
32-2=30-Fay. 28+2=30

Ms. Kline is baking cookies. She wants to bake cookies for eight friends. Each friend needs to receive at least ten cookies. The recipe she is using makes 55 cookies in one batch.
1. How many batches of cookies does she need to bake to give each person ten cookies?
2. How many cookies will be left over?

Answers

2 batches, there will be 110 cookies made. ms kline is giving 80 away to her friends which leaves us with 30 leftover cookies
8x10=80 so you need at least 80 cookies
55x2=110
110-80=30

So you would need to make 2 batches and you would have 30 cookies left over

Yesterday noah ran 2 1/2 miles in 3/5 hour. Emily ran 3 3/4 miles in 5/6 hour. Anna ran 3 1/2 miles in 3/4 hour how fast in miles per hour did each person run? Who ran the fastest? !!SHOW WORK!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the speed of each one we proceed as follows:

speed=distance/time

a] Noah's speed:

distance=2.5 miles

time=3/5 hours

speed=(2 1/2)/(3/5)

=(5/2)/(3/5)

=5/2×5/3

=25/6

=4 1/6 mi/hr

Emily's speed

distance=3 3/4 miles

time=5/6 hour

thus

speed=(3 3/4)/(5/6)

=15/4)/(5/6)

=15/4×6/5

=4 1/2 mi/hr

Anna's speed:

distance=3 1/3 miles

time=3/5

speed=(3 1/3)/(3/5

=(10/3)/(3/5)

=10/3×5/3

=5 5/9 mi/hr

Anna was the fastest
