Answer:

m = 3, n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using the substitution process. First, start with the second equation:

2m + 2n = 14

Simplify. Divide 2 from all terms within the equation. What you do to one side, you do to the other:

(2m + 2n)/2 = (14)/2

m + n = 7

Isolate the variable m. Subtract n from both sides:

m + n (-n) = 7 (-n)

m = 7 - n

Plug in 7 - n for m in the first equation:

-5m + 9n = 21

-5(7 - n) + 9n = 21

Solve. First, distribute -5 to all terms within the parenthesis:

(-35 + 5n) + 9n = 21

Simplify. Combine like terms:

-35 + (5n + 9n) = 21

-35 + 14n = 21

Isolate the variable, n. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 35 to both sides:

14n - 35 (+35) = 21 (+35)

14n = 21 + 35

14n = 56

Isolate the variable n. Divide 14 from both sides:

(14n)/14 = (56)/14

n = 56/14

n = 4

Plug in 4 to n in one of the equations, and solve for m.

2m + 2n = 14

2m + 2(4) = 14

2m + 8 = 14

Isolate the variable, m. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, subtract 8 from both sides:

2m + 8 (-8) = 14 (-8)

2m = 14 - 8

2m = 6

Divide 2 from both sides:

(2m)/2 = (6)/2

m = 6/2

m = 3

Your answers: m = 3, n = 4

Answer:

(3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please include the instructions.  I'm assuming that you want to solve this system of linear equations.

If that's the case, let's use elimination by addition and subtraction.

Multiply the first equation, -5m + 9n = 21, by 2:  -10m + 18n = 42, and

multiply the second equation, 2m + 2n = 14, by 5:  10m + 10n = 70

Next, combine these two "new" equations:

-10m + 18n = 42

10m + 10n = 70

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

          28n = 112.  Dividing both sides by 28, we get  n = 4.

Subbing 4 for n in the second equation, we get 2m + 2(4) = 14, or

2m = 6.  Then m = 3, and the solution is thus

(3, 4).

evablogger [386]

Answer:

25x+12y+4 \leq 130

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of tickets and y represents the number of T-shirts.

As per the statement:

Each ticket costs $25,  and souvenir T-shirts are $12 each

⇒Total cost of ticket = 25x and Total cost for T-shirt = 12y

It is also given that there is a $4 service fee for the entire purchase.

25x+12y+4

Since, she has $130

⇒25x+12y+4 \leq 130

Therefore, an inequality could you use to answer the problem is, 25x+12y+4 \leq 130

How do you convert improper fractions to proper fractions
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Step- for example, 27/6. The fraction bar means you need to divide 27 by 6.

Divide 27 by 6. The answer is 4, with a remainder of 3. Use the answer as the whole number part of the mixed number, and place the remainder over the original denominator: 4 3/6.

The mean salary of people living in a certain city is $37500 with a standard deviation of $1561. a sample of 33 people is select
Murrr4er [49]
The probability is 0.9671.

The z-score for this is given by

z = (x - μ)/(σ/√n)
z = (38000-37500)/(1561/(√33)) = 1.84.

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area under the curve to the left of, less than, this is 0.9671.

A company uses two vans to transportworkers from a free parking lot to theworkplace between 7:00 and 9:00 a.m.One van has 6 more
OverLord2011 [107]
X = small van capacity, y = larger van capacity
y = x + 6

2x + y = 57
now we sub in x + 6 for y
2x + x + 6 = 57
3x + 6 = 57
3x = 57 - 6
3x = 51
x = 51/3
x = 17

y = x + 6
y = 17 + 6
y = 23

small van (x) has 17 seats and large van (y) has 23 seats
