Answer:

y=-2

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

equation 1: x + 6y = -8

equation 2: 7x + 2y = 24

To eliminate x first, multiply equation 1 by 7:

7x + 42y = -56

Then subtract the equations from each other:

{ 7x + 42y = -56 } - { 7x + 2y = 24 } = -40y=80

Then we divide both sides by -40 to isolate the <em>y</em>

y = -2

Then we plug -2 into y in one of the equations to find <em>x</em>:

7x+42y=-56

7x+42(-2)=-56

7x-84=-56

7x=28

x=4

One die is blue and the other die is yellow. Both are rolled. What is the probability of getting the shm of 8?
suter [353]

Answer:

5 /36

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space :

Number of faces^number of dice = 6^2 = 36

Sum of 8 on a roll of 2 dies :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome = number of times a sum of 8 is obtained on a roll of 2 dies = 5

Total possible outcomes = sample space = 36

P(obtaining a sum of 8) = 5 /36

at Michaels auto shop, it takes him 15 minutes to do an oil change and 24 minutes to do a tire change. let x be the number of oi
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

At Susan's auto shop, it takes her 12 minutes to do an oil change and 18 minutes to do a tire change. Let x be the number of oil changes she does. Let y be the number of tire changes she does.

Using the values and variables given, write an inequality describing how many oil changes and tire changes Susan can do in less than 3 hours (180 minutes).

Answer provided by our tutors

The total time that Susan needs to change x oil changes and y tire changes is less than 180 min.

The time needed for x oil changes is 12 * x.

The time needed for y tire changes is 18 * y.

The total time is the sum of the above times and needs to be less than 180 that is

12 * x + 18 * y < 180 divide both sides of equation by 6

12/6 * x + 18/6*y < 180/6

2*x + 3*y < 30

2*x < 30 - 3*y divide both sides by 2 to get the inequality for x

x < 30/2 - 3/2*y = 15 - 1.5 y < 15 that is x < = 15

2*x + 3*y < 30

3*y < 30 - 2*x divide both sides by 3 to get the inequality for y

y < 30/3 - 2/3 *x = 10 - 2/3*x < 10 that is y < = 10

Also we can write x + y < x+ 3/2 * y < 15.

Susan can do not more then 5 oil changes and not more then 10 tire changes or all together she can do not more then 15 total of oil and tire changes.

Just do this problem but with Michael
