Answer:
Option D is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are:
5x - 3y = -11 Eqn 1
2x - 6y = -14 Eqn 2
We have to find the value of y so we will eliminate x.
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2
2(5x-3y=-11)
10x-6y=-22 Eqn 3
Multiplying Eqn 2 by 5
5(2x-6y=-14)
10x-30y=-70 Eqn 4
Subtracting Eqn 4 from Eqn 3
(10x-6y)-(10x-30y)= -22-(-70)
10x-6y-10x+30y = -22 + 70
24y = 48
Therefore,
Option D is the correct answer.
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -2.</u></h3>
5(2x + 8) = -8x + 4
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
10x + 40 = -8x + 4
<em><u>Add 8x to both sides.</u></em>
18x + 40 = 4
<em><u>Subtract 40 from both sides.</u></em>
18x = -36
<em><u>Divide both sides by 18</u></em>
x = -2

➷ Find the multiplier:
28/100 = 0.28
1 - 0.28 = 0.72
Multiply the total amount by this multiplier:
40,000 x 0.72 = 28,800
She will make $28,800

Answer:
The number is <u>less than</u> 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us break up and convert each individual phrase into its equivalent in an equation.
"Three time" is 
"The difference of a number and three" is (3-x)
"Is greater than" is >
"The number decreased by five" is (x-5)
We can now put all of these parts together to get our equation
Now, we can simplify this and solve for x
