Apply the elimination method to the 2y terms since they are opposites & therefore can eliminate. Combine the rest of the terms, vertically.

x-2y= -7
4x+2y= 22
5x = 15
Divide both sides by 5.
x=3

Plug the x value to one of the original equations and solve for y.

4x + 2y = 22
4(3) + 2y = 22
12 + 2y = 22
Subtract by 12 on both sides.
2y = 10
Divide by 2 on both sides.
y = 5

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations shown is:

x=3 y=5

or

as an ordered pair (3, 5).

Can someone explain 3-10 for me I don't get it!!
kicyunya [14]
This can get confusing. Sorry if it doesn’t make a lot of sense. I will explain #3

1) You first have to look at the equation. It says 100 acres to 140 acres. From that information you should know that the number increases, so the percent will be over 100.
2)to set the equation up you do
X
__ =
100
Since every percent is out of 100.
3) Now you have to put the numbers in the equation. Since the original number is 15, so you would put it on the bottom and 18 on top.
X 18
__ = __
100 15
Then you times across
15x=1800
To find x (the percent) you divide both sides by 15
15x 1800
__ = __
15 15
X=120%
It would be increased

Answer:

A rational number is a number such as -3/7 that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction a/b of two integers, a numerator q and a non-zero denominator b. Every integer is a rational number: for example, 10 = 10/1.
