You have to make them have their least common denominator to add or subtract, in this case 36.
Multiply 1/12 by 3, to get the denominator 36: 3/36.
Multiply 7/9 by 4, to get the denominator 36: 28/36.
Now add the numerators: 3+28=31, 31/36 is as simplified as possible so your answer is 31/36 :) I hope this helps :)

Formula: i = p*r*t, where p is the initial amount, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the time in years. Then,

i = $4000(0.05)(5) = $1000.

5x + 3y = 16 <br> 3x -5y = -4<br> How do I solve this

lawyer [7]

Answer:

$(2, 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this system of equations using the elimination method.

Let's start by multiplying the first equation by 3:

$3(5x+3y)=3(16)\\3(5x)+3(3y)=48\\15x+9y=48$

Now, multiply the second equation by 5:

$5(3x-5y)=5(-4)\\5(3x)-5(5y)=-20\\15x-25y=-20$

Since both equations have 15x, we can eliminate the x by subtracting the two equations.

$15x-15x+9y-(-25y)=48-(-20)\\9y+25y=68\\34y=68\\\text{Divide both sides by 34}\\y=2$

Now, substitute 2 for y to solve for x:

$5x+3y=16\\5x+3(2)=16\\5x+6=16\\\text{Subtract 6 from both sides}\\5x=10\\\text{Divide both sides by 2}\\x=2$

Therefore the solution to this system of equations is:

$(x, y)=(2, 2)$
