Multiply 3x +y =23 by -4
x+4y=4
-12x+(-4y)=-92
Add together
-11x = -88
x = 8
Plug x in to find y.
8 + 4y = 4
Subtract 8 from each sides
4y = -4
Divide by 4
y = -1
So the answer is x =8, y= -1
I hope that helps!
You can’t simplify because 11 is a prime number
Answer:
36u
Step-by-step explanation:
With like terms, just add normally
Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves
Answer:
% Decrease = 11.45%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original Population = 5893
Expected Population = 5218
% Decrease = Original Population - Expected Population / Original population
% Decrease = (5893 - 5218 ) / 5893
% Decrease = 675/5893
% Decrease = 0.11454268
% Decrease = 11.454268%
% Decrease = 11.45% approximately.
