answer: 9
the answer is 9 because 6 ÷ 2 = 3, and if you multiply 3 with 3, you get 9. you multiply the number 3 because you need to find out the distance in miles, and since in inches it is 3, you need to multiply by 3 because that is the formula to get miles.
6/9 (2/3) and 2/3. Hope this helps you.
Let x be larger integer so x-3 is the smaller
so x^2+ x-3 = 87
x^2 +x -90=0 and factor
(x-9)(x+10)=0
x=9 or x=-10 but x must be positive
so x=9 and smaller number is 6
1/15 because you add all the blocks together and it gives you 15 and there is only 1 blue block so it will be a 1/15 chance of getting it
Answer:
B (5, 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
9x + 4y = 97
9x + 6y = 123
To solve by elimination, we want to <em>eliminate</em> a variable. To do this, we must make one variable cancel out.
First, we can see that both equations have 9x. To cancel out x, we must make <em>one</em> of the 9x's <em>negative</em>. To do this, multiply <em>each term</em> in the equation by -1.
-1(9x + 6y = 123)
-9x - 6y = -123
This is one of your equations. Set it up with your other given equation.
9x + 4y = 97
-9x - 6y = -123
Imagine this is one equation. Since every term is negative, you will be subtracting each term.
9x + 4y = 97
-9x - 6y = -123
___________
0x -2y = -26
-2y = -26
To isolate y further, divide both sides by -2.
y = 13
Now, to find x, plug y back into one of the original equations.
9x + 4(13) = 97
Multiply.
9x + 52 = 97
Subtract.
9x = 45
Divide.
x = 5
Check your answer by plugging both variables into the equation you have not used yet.
-9(5) - 6(13) = -123
-45 - 78 = -123
-123 = -123
Your answer is correct!
