Answer:Jason is not correct as Jason changed the terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 34+5.6b+9.Jason used the commutative property to write the above expression changed to 9.0 + 56b + 3.4

We have to tell Jason work is correct or not.

Commutative property states that order does not matters but the terms remains same i.e a+b=b+aJason change the expression 34+5.6b+9 to 9.0 + 56b + 3.4here, Jason change the terms as well as order Jason is not correct as Jason changed the terms.

What is the solution of y − 4x = 0 and 3x + 6y = 9?

Elden [556K]

You solve this by plugging one equation into the other. Usually you have to rewrite one equation to make this work. In this case I choose to rewrite y-4x=0 as y=4x.

After plugging it into the second, you get:

3x + 6*4x = 9 => 27x = 9 => x=1/3

Putting this solution back into y=4x gives us y=4/3

6.81 is what percent of 45.5

frosja888 [35]

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 45.5 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 45.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 45.5=100%.

4. We know, that x is 6.81% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.81%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 45.5=100%

2) x=6.81%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

45.5/x=100%/6.81%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 6.81% of 45.5

45.5/x=100/6.81

(45.5/x)*x=(100/6.81)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

45.5=14.684287812041*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.684287812041) to get x

45.5/14.684287812041=x

3.09855=x

x=3.09855

now we have:

6.81% of 45.5=3.09855

Hope this helps!

Alika [10]

Given:

The expression is $5+4\times 2+6-2\times 2-1$ .

To find:

The position of parentheses inserted in the expression to get the value 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

$5+4\times 2+6-2\times 2-1$

Now,

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=9\times 2+6-4-1$

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=18+6-5$

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=18+1$

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=19$

There are more ways to apply the parenthesis, but we do not get 19.

$5+4*\left(2+6\right)-2*2-1=32\neq 19$

$5+4*2+\left(6-2\right)*2-1=20\neq 19$

$5+4*2+6-2*\left(2-1\right)=17\neq 19$

And many more possibilities.

Therefore, the expression after inserting the parentheses is $(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1$ .

You are reducing a map of dimensions 2 ft by 3 ft to fit to a piece of paper 8 in. by 10 in. What are the dimensions of the larg

Alchen [17]

Answer:

$6\frac{2}{3}$ in. by 10 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 ft by 3 ft, inches is:

2 * 12 = 24 inch

3 * 12 = 36 inch

24 * 36

Thus, to make 36 into 10, we divide 36 by 3.6 to get 10:

36/3.6 = 10

To keep ratio equal, we need to divide 24 by 3.6 to get:

24/3.6 = $6\frac{2}{3}$

Thus, Third answer choice is right.

Can someone please help me on solving: x+y=-4

timama [110]

Answer: x=-1 and y= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x, x+y=-4

Minus y from both sides so it'll be X=-y-4

Now substitute -y-4 in x-y=2 and solve for y

-y - 4 -y=2

Add like terms, -2y - 4=2

Add 4 to both sides -2y=6

Divide both sides by -2 $\frac{-2y}{-2} = \frac{6}{-2}$

y= -3

Substitute -3 in x=-y - 4

x=-(-3) - 4

- × (-3)= 3

3 - 4= -1

x= -1
