First, you need to isolate the x in the first equation.
-x + 5y = 1
Subtract 5y from both sides, leaving you with the following equation:
-x = 1-5y
Because you are trying to solve for positive x and not negative x, you need to make x positive. Therefore you divide both sides by -1. In Algebra, when 1 is the coefficient of the variable, it is not shown, but it is still there. The new equation will be the following: x = 5y-1
Now you just need to substitute the x within the second equation for the x equation we just solved for.
Therefore, the right answer will be 2(5y-1)+4y= -4. Now, all you have to do is choose the answer that states exactly that, which is the first choice.
The first one equals 16. The second one equals 0.0625
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question
Number of bags of mulch = 7.5 bags
Number of square yards = 12
So by considering above information, we could find the number of bags for each square yard is
= 
= 
= 0.625
The 0.625 is equal to bag
Therefore, she need to use bag for each square yard
Basically we use the fraction so that each square yard for use of bag could be find out
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call our fraction x.
x=3.777......
We want to get rid of the repeating stuff. If we multiply our fraction by 10, we get 10x=37.7777.
We see that if we subtract x from 10x, the repeating numbers will be cancelled out. Let's do this.
10x=37.7777
-
x=3.77777
=
9x=34
We divide both sides by 9.
x=34/9=3 7/9.
Have a wonderful day! :D
89 divided by 7 + 46^2 = 2128.71428571...
I hope this helps!
