Answer:

x = 3/-16

y = 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - y = -4 ------------(1)

4x -3y = -6 -------------(2)

From the first equation, find y

y = 12x + 4

Now plug in y = 12x + 4 in the second equation, we get

4x - 3(12x + 4) = -6

4x - 36x - 12 = -6

-32x -12 = -6

-32x  = 12 - 6

-32x = 6

x = 6/-32

x = 3/-16

Now plug in x = 3/-18 in y = 12x + 4 and find the value of y.

y = 12(3/-16) + 4

y = 36/-16 + 4

y = 9/-4 + 4

y = -2 1/4 + 4

y = 1 3/4

y = 7/4

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

suppose a population of 250 crickets doubles in size every six months. How many crickets will there be after two years?
lord [1]

double every 6 months 

in 6 months there would be 250*2 = 500 crickets

 in 1 year there would be 500*2 = 1000 crickets

in 1.5 years there would be 1000 *2 = 2000 crickets

 in 2 years there would be 2000 *2 = 4000 crickets

What are the answers for 2, 3 , and 4? That’s it
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

1. Formula: b * h ÷ 2

12 * 3 = 36 ÷ 2 = 18 in^2

2. Formula: b * h ÷ 2

5 * 8 = 40 ÷ 2 = 20 ft^2

I could only help on two. Hope it helps though! =)

The first side of a triangle is twice the length of the second side; the third side is 20 feet less than three times the second
oee [108]
Let the second side be x

then,
first side = twice the length of the second side
= 2x

third side = 20 feet less than three times the second side
3 (second side ) - 20
= 3 (2x) -20
= 6x - 20

perimete of a triangle = sum of all sides,

substitute the values we know,
and you'll be left with this equation

106 = x + 2x + 6x - 20
106+ 20 = 9x
126 = 9x
126/9 = x
14 = x

so,

measure of second side = x = 14 feet

measure of first side = 2x = 2 (14) = 28 feet

measure of thurd side = 6x - 20 = 6 (14)-20 = 84- 20 = 64 feet.

If 1/a + 1/b =1/c and ab=c,what is the average of a and b?
goblinko [34]
If we solve the left side of the given equation,
                                  1/a + 1/b = 1/c
 we get an answer of,
                                    b+a / ab = 1/c
Since ab = c, we can conclude that b + a is 1. The average of these two numbers is equal to there sum divided by 2. The answer is therefore equal to 0.5.
