The solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

<h3>Simultaneous linear equations</h3>

From the question, we are to solve the given system of equations

The given system of equation is

4x+5y=-1

-5x-8y=10

Multiply the <u>first equation</u> by 5 and the <u>second equation</u> by 4

5× (4x+5y=-1)

4× (-5x-8y=10)

20x + 25y = -5

-20x - 32y = 40

------------------------

0x + (-7y) = 35

-7y = 35

y = 35/-7

y = -5

Substitute the value of y into the first equation to find x

4x + 5y = -1

4x + 5(-5) = -1

4x -25 = -1

4x = -1 +25

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

A grocery store manager is ordering eggs. She orders a box of eggs
stich3 [128]
180 eggs. That’s because 6 x 6 = 36 so we know how many eggs are in each tray. Then there are 5 trays with 36 eggs so 5 x 36 = 180

Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set. Round to the nearest tenth.
Setler79 [48]
The answer is D, because if you add up all the numbers you'll get 107, and than if you divide 107 by the amount of numbers there are (which is 11) you'll get 9.7 as the mean. And if you put all the numbers in order and cross off one on each side one by one the last one will be 10, which is the median. And if you look at the numbers, you'll see there is three 15's which is more than any other number so 15 is the mode.
Hope this helps! :)
