How to do 2x-8=7y and 6x-9y=-4

Mathematics

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = -25/6

y = -7/3

Discussion:

2x - 8 = 7y                    => multiply both sides by 3

6x - 24 = 21y    

Subtract this from the second equation:

  6x -9y= -4

  6x -24 = 21y

-   --------------------------

0x -9y + 24 = -4 - 21y              =>   add 21y to both sides

-9y + 21y + 24 = -4                    =>  add -24 to both sides

-9y +21y + (24 - 24) = -4 -24     =>

12y = - 28                                   =>

y = -28/12

y = -7/3

Solving for x,  

2x - 8 = 7(-7/3)           =>

2x - 8 = -49/3            => add 8 = 24/3 to both sides

2x = -49/3 + 24/3      =>

2x = -25/3                 => divide both sides by 2

x = -25/6

Thank you,

Can anyone help me? is it a b c or d
Nataly_w [17]

Answer: choice a

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side. Note: This rule must be satisfied for all 3 conditions of the sides.

so it has to be in between 9 and 5

7+2=9

2+x>7

  --> x>5

however, it can't be 5 or 9

Hope this helps! <3

Which pair of ratios form a proportion?
leva [86]

Answer:

D: 5 : 8 and 20 : 32

Step-by-step explanation:

A is incorrect because 3 x 1.33 = 4 and 4 x 1.25 = 5.

B is incorrect because 10 x 1.6 = 16 and 12 x 1.5 = 18.

C is incorrect because 7 x 1.428 = 10 and 10 x 1.4 = 14.

D is correct because 5 x 4 = 20 and 8 x 4 = 32.

another way of solving the ratio answers is by putting them in a fraction 5/8 = .625 and also does 20/32 = .625.....

Easy right!?

Hope I Helped!
