Answer:

a = -5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3/a × -4 = 20

3a × -4/-4 = 20/-4

3a = -5

a = -5/3

Check:

3/(-5/3) × - 4 = 20

Y=-3x+5 <br> 5x-4y=-3<br> Trying to solve this problem

rodikova [14]

Your answer would be y= 5x/-4 - 3/-4 because you’ll move 5x to the other side of the equal sign then divide -4 to get y by itself

When Sarah turned 18, she took $500 from her savings and opened a

Montano1993 [528]

The worth of Sarah's investment when she is 68 is $14,728.51.

<h3>What is the worth of the investment?</h3>

The formula that can be used to determine the worth of the investment is:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value

P = Present value

R = interest rate

N = number of years = 68 - 18 = 50

$500 x (1.07)^50 = $14,728.51

Solve by the elimination method

Usimov [2.4K]

There is one solution. The solution of the system is (9,-5)

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the system of equations by elimination method

$6x= 64+2y\\2x= -7-5y$

Rearranging the equations:

$6x-2y=64\,\,\,eq(1)\\2x+5y=-7\,\,\,eq(2)$

Eliminating y to find value of x:

Multiply eq(1) by 5 and eq(2) by 2 and add both equations:

$30x-10y=320\,\,\,\\4x+10y=-14\\--------\\34x=306\\x=\frac{306}{34}\\ x=9$

So, value of x= 9

Eliminating x to find value of y:

Multiply eq(1) by 2 and eq(2) by 6 and subtract both equations:

$12x-4y=128\\12x+30y=-42\\-\,\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,+\\---------\\-34y=170\\y=\frac{170}{-34}\\ y=-5$

So, value of y = -5

There is one solution. The solution of the system is (9,-5)

Option A is correct.
