Whenever you add fractions it means you need a common denominator. The quickest way to find this number is to multiply the two denominators together (in this case 8 and 9).
So your new fractions are 63/72 and 32/72. When you add those you get 95/72.
Next simply divide the two numbers to get a decimal, so here we get: 1.31944...
So this number is closer to 1

Answer:
(-3,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) -2x+y=8
you need to leave the Y alone on one side. Then, the term -2x goes to the other side with its opposite sign which is +.
y=8+2x
2) y=2x/(5-8)
3) 8+2x=2x/(5-8)
now, you need the x value. for that, you need to leave x alone on one side.
8+2x=2x/(-3)
8+2x=-(2/3)x
8=-(2/3)x-2x
8=-(8/3)x
8/-(8/3)=x
-3=x
4) you now have the x value. you need the y value. for that, replace the x in one of the given equations. let´s use the 1st equation.
-2x+y=8
y=8+2x
y=8+2*(-3)
y=2
result:
x= -3
y=2
2 inches = 0.1666 feet
15 x 24 x 0.1666 = 59.98 cubic feet
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet
59.98 is greater than 27 so 1 cubic yard of topsoil will not be enough
1 x14=14 * what times one is one*
2 x7=14
