Answer:

y = 1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 5x+2y=7  and - 2x+6=9.

To find : Solve the following system of equations. Enter the y-coordinate of the solution. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Solution : We have given

5x + 2y = 7 --------(1)

- 2x + 6y = 9 -------(2).

To make the y coefficient same multiply the equation 1 by 3.

15 x + 6y = 21 .

(+)-2x +(-) 6y = (-)9 .

______________ ( On subtracting both the equations )

17 x + 0  = 12 .

17 x = 12 .

On dividing both sides by 17

x = \frac{12}{17}.

x = 0.705

Plug x = 0.705 in equation 2 .

- 2 ( 0.705) + 6y = 9.

-1.41 + 6y = 9 .

On adding both sides by 1.41.

6y = 9 + 1.41

6 y = 10. 41

On dividing both sides by 6.

y =  \frac{10.41}{6}.

y = 1.735.

Nearest tenth = 1.7

Therefore,  y = 1.7.

5x + 2y = 7....multiply by -3
-2x + 6y = 9
----------------
-15x - 6y = -21 (result of multiplying by -3)
-2x + 6y = 9
---------------add
-17x = - 12
x = 12/17 or 0.7

5x + 2y = 7
5(12/17) + 2y = 7
60/17 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 60/17
2y = 119/17 - 60/17
2y = 59/17
y = 59/17 * 1/2
y = 59/34 or 1.7 when rounded <====

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Independent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent variable :

An independent variable is a variable that speaks to an amount that is being controlled in a trial. A needy variable speaks to an amount whose worth relies upon those controls.  

It is the variable in a equation that may have its worth unreservedly picked without thinking about estimations of some other variable.

For example :

In equation y=5x+3, x is an independent variable

Karrem says that the ratio 4:1 is eqivilent to the ratio of 12:9 because 4+8=12 and 1+8 =9 is karreem correct
Mariana [72]

Answer:

No, Kareem is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kareem says that the ratio of \frac{4}{1}=\frac{12}{9} because 4 + 8 = 12 and 1 + 8 = 9

But the correct way to rewrite the ratio 4 : 1 is,

\frac{4}{1}=\frac{4\times 3}{1\times 3}

Which becomes as,

\frac{4}{1}=\frac{12}{3}

Therefore, Kareem is not correct.

Correct ratio equivalent to 4 : 1 is 12 : 3.
