Answer:
No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+2y=20
-3x-y=-4 (by rewriting)
So
6/-3 = 2/-1≠20/-4
-2=-2≠-5
So it has no solutions
5.4 divide by 0.12 equals 45
This problem boils down to 5/6 - 1/4
To subtract these fractions you need a common denominator.
I'll use 12
The first fraction becomes 10/12 and the second fraction becomes 3/12
10/12-3/12 = 7/12
So Jacob is 7/12 of a foot taller than Linda.
Also note than since 12 inches = 1 foot, you could say Jacob is 7 inches taller than Linda
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
15 = 1/2x
multiply both sides of equation by 2
30 = x
get a common denominator of 24
2/3 * 8/8 vs 7/8 * 3/3
16/24 vs 21/24
16/24<21/24
2/3 <7/8
