Answer:
Adam needs 9/8 of a 5oz serving of shrimps (which equals to 5.625 oz) and 5/8 of a cup of brown rice (which is around 10 tablespoons).
Explanation:
You are given:
every serving of shrimp contains 2g of fat and 5mg of iron;
every serving of rice contains 6g of fat and 7mg of iron;
each meal should have 6g of total fat and 10mg of total iron.
You need to set a system of equation: let's call
s = quantity of shrimps
r = quantity of rice
The equation for the total fat will be: the quantity of fat in the serving of shrimps plus the quantity of fat in the serving of rice must be equal to 6g
2s + 6r = 6 (1)
Similarily:
the quantity of iron in the serving of shrimps plus the quantity of iron in the serving of rice must be equal to 10g
5s + 7r = 10 (2)
In order to solve the system, solve for s in equation (1):
s = (6-6r)/2 = 3 - 3r (3)
Substitute in equation (2):
5(3 - 3r) + 7r = 10
and solve for r:
15 - 15r + 7r = 10
8r = 5
r = 5/8
Substitute the value of r in equation (3):
s = 3 - 3×5/8 = 9/8
Therefore Adam would need 9/8 of a 5oz serving of shrimps and 5/8 of a 1 cup of brown rice for each meal.
No it is NOT possible - that would mean the final angle would also have to be ninety degrees making it a square or rectangle. :)

Answer:
ello mate my day is great how about yours
Step-by-step explanation:
and may i ask are you british??
12x - 8y = -12
6x + 4y = -30
Multiply the 2nd equation by 2, to make the Y coefficients opposite:
6x + 4y = -30 x 2 = 12x + 8y = -60
Now add the two equations:
12x -8y = -12 + 12x +8y = -60
= 24x = -72
Divide bothe sides by 24 to solve for x:
x = -72/24
x = -3
Now replace x with -3 in the first equation to solve for y:
12(-3) - 8y = -12
-36 - 8y = -12
Add 36 to each side:
-8y = 24
Divide both sides by -8 to solve for y:
y = 24 / -8
y = -3
X = -3 and y = -3
(-3,-3)
