Answer:
Sandy did not follow PEMDAS and added first instead of doing her multiplication and division and then her addition and subtraction the answer would be 18
If AB is twice as large as A'B', the scale factor must be 0.5 to get from AB to A'B':
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/y + 7/x =24.........(1)
12/y + 2/x =24........(2)
Let 1/y = a and 1/x = b
5a + 7b = 24 ...........(3)
12a + 2b = 24...........(4)
Multiply (3) by 2 and (4) by 7
10a + 14b = 48..........(5)
84a + 14b = 168.........(6)
Substracting (5) from (6)
84a - 10a = 168 - 48
74a = 120
a = 120/74
a = 60/37
Putting a = 60/37 in (3)
5a + 7b = 24
5(60/37) + 7b = 24
300/37 + 7b = 24
Multiply each term 37
300 + 259b = 888
259b = 888 - 300
259b = 588
b = 588/259
And a = 1/y
60/37 = 1/y
Cross multiply
60y = 37
y = 37/60
Also
b = 1/x
588/259 = 1/x
Cross multiply
588x = 259
x = 259/588
