So use cancelation
multiply first equation by 2
2x+8y=10
times 2
4x+16y=20
now add

4x+16y=20
<u>-4x-9y=-13   +
</u>0x+7y=7
7y=7
divide by 7
y=1

subsittue

2x+8y=10
2x+8(1)=10
2x+8=10
subtract 8 from both sides
2x=2
divide by 2
x=1


x=1
y=1

-(7-9)z-6z=8(-6+2) solve for z
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

(-(7-9))(z)-6z= 8(-6+2)

Simplify

-(-2)(z) -6z =8(-6+2)

Multiply 8*-6 and 8*2

2z -6z= -48+16

Combine like terms

2z+-6z =-32

-4z=-32

Divide both sides by -4

z=8

What is the selling price of a $12,543 boat if a $758 discount is given?
Lelu [443]
Given:
Selling Price: 12,543
Discount: 758

We simply deduct the discount from the original price to get the discounted selling price.

12,543 - 758 = 11,785

The new selling price of the boat is $11,785.

Discount of $758 is 6% of the Original selling price.
758 / 12,543 = 0.06
0.06 x 100% = 6%

How many ways can you arrange the letters in the word prime?
Jobisdone [24]
There are 5 letters in the word "prime"

Imagine we had 5 slots to fill. They are empty initially. 
Slot 1 has 5 choices to pick from
Once we pick a letter, we have 4 choices left over for slot 2
Slot 3 will have 3 choices
Slot 4 will have 2 choices
Slot 5 will have 1 choice

We have this countdown: 5,4,3,2,1

which multiplies out to 5*4*3*2*1 = 120

There are 120 unique ways to arrange the letters. Order matters. Because order matters, this is a permutation.

The lines on a 2-cup liquid measuring cup divide each cup into eighths If you measure 1 3/4 cups of water between which two quan
sasho [114]

Answer:

The line between 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 is exactly 1 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 3/4 = 1 6/8

Since the lines are every 1/8 of a cup, there are a total of 16 lines indicating 1/8 of a cup for a total of two full cups.

1/8 less than 1 6/8 is 1 5/8.

1/8 more than 1 6/8 is 1 7/8.

The line between 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 is exactly 1 3/4.
