The Answer is the first one
Answer:
x = 1
y = -2
Explanation:
First, solve for x by subtracting 7y from both sides of the first equation and then divide both sides by -5.
-5x + 7y = -19
-5x + 7y - 7y = -19 - 7y
-5x = -19 - 7y
-5x/ -5 = -19 - 7y/ -5
x = -19 - 7y/ -5
Next, substitute the value of x into the second equation and solve.
6 - (-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
Then, solve for y
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
-6(-19 - 7y) - 10y = 50
114 + 42y - 10y = 50
144 + 32y = 50
32y = 50 - 144
32y = -64
32y/ 32 = -64/ 32
y = -2
Finally, substitute the value of y into the x value we found earlier and solve
x = - 19 - 7y/ 5
x = - 19 - 7 • -2/ 5
x = 1

<span>1. </span><span>A penny weighs about 0.1 oz.
Now, we need to find the weights of pennies in pounds
=> always remember that in every 1 oz, there is 0.0625 pounds.
Since 0.1 is 1/10 of 1 oz, we need to find the value of it in pounds.
=> 0.0625 pounds / 10
=> 0.0625 pounds.
Therefore, in 0.1 oz of penny is
equivalent to 0.00625 pounds.
In problem like this, before determining the answer, you need to make sure that
both unit of measurements are the same. If not, then try to convert.</span>
I = Prt, where P = $1,295; r = 7/100 = 0.07, t = 180/365
I = 1,295 x 0.07 x 180/365 = $44.70
