Answer:
(-1/2, 3/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the elimination by adding or subtracting method. Note that we have 8y in the first equation, and that we could obtain -8y in the second equation by multiplying the second equation by 2:
2(24x - 4y = -15) => 48x - 8y = -30
Now combine this result (this equation) with the first equation:
2x + 8y = 5
+48x -8y = -30
---------------------
50x = - 25
Dividing both sides by 50, to isolate x, we get
x = -25/50 = -1/2.
Now substitute -1/2 for x in the first equation and solve the resulting equation for y:
2x + 8y = 5
2(-1/2) + 8y = 5, or -1 + 8y = 5, or 8y = 6 (after having added 1 to both sides)
Dividing both sides of 8y = 6 by 8 leads to determining the value of y:
y = 6/8 = 3/4
The solution is (-1/2, 3/4).
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
For shapes to be similar, their ratios of length-to-length and width-to-width must be the same. When you divide the larger length by the smaller length and the larger width by the smaller width, do you get the same number? No, so these rectangles are not similar.
Answer:
726
Step-by-step explanation:
Here p = k / q², and 24 = k / 121, or k = 2904
Then p = 2904 / q²
If q = 2, p = 2904 /4 = 726
According to this, it's $17.73/hr.
(Probably should put how many hours you work daily next time)
