Answer: Hello there!

here we have two equations:

1) x + 3y = 7

2) 2x + 4y = 8

a) first we want to isolate x in the first equation:

x + 3y = 7

x = 7 -3y

done!

b) now we want to replace it in the second equation, and in this way get a equation that depends only on the variable y.

2x + 4y = 8

2(7 - 3y) + 4y = 8

c) now we sole this equation and obtain the value of y.

14 - 6y + 4y = 8

14 - 2y = 8

-2y = 8 - 14 = -6

y = 6/2 = 3

d) now we have the value of y, and we can substitute it on the equation that we got in the part a)

x = 7 - 3y

x = 7 - 3*3 = 7 - 9 = -2

e) now we knowt that x = -2 and y = 3, then the pair (x,y) can be written as:

(-2,3).

46 2/3% of 28 please i need to know answer an work
Bogdan [553]

First, it would help to put 46 and 2/3 into an improper fraction: 140/3.

Then, since this is a percent, we put that improper fraction over 100: (140/3)/100 = 140/300.

Finally, we multiply this answer by 28 since "of" means multiply:

(140/300) * 28 = 196/15 = 13 1/15

Find the determinant of the following matrix. A =<br>-2 6<br>3 5​
Blababa [14]

Answer:

|A| = - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&6\\3&5\end{array}\right]

Required

Determine the determinant

For a two by two matrix, A such that:

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]

The determinant |A| is:

|A| = a * d - b * c

So, in

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&6\\3&5\end{array}\right]

The determinant is:

|A| = -2 * 5 - 6 * 3

|A| = -10 - 18

|A| = - 28
