Solution I think I’m not 100% though:/
Answer:
x = -2/5
y = 12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitution method;
-2x + 3y = 8 -----------(i)
x + y =2 -----------(ii)
x = 2 - y
substitute the value of x in equ (i)
(-2)* (2-y) + 3y = 8
-4 + 2y + 3y = 8
5y = 8 + 4
y = 12/5
substitute the value of y in equ (ii)
x + 12/5 = 2
x = 2 - 12/5
= 2*5/1*5 - 12/5
= 10 -12/5 = -2/5
Ans: x = -2/5
y = 12/5
elimination method:
-2x + 3y = 8 -----------(i)
x + y =2 -----------(ii)
(i) ====> -2x + 3y = 8
multiply equ (ii) by 2 ====> <u> 2x + 2y = 4</u>
add (i) and (ii) 5y = 12
y = 12/5
Substitute in equ (ii)
x + 12/5 = 2
x = 2 - 12/5
= 2*5/1*5 - 12/5
= 10 -12/5 = -2/5
Ans: x = -2/5
y = 12/5

Answer:
The value of 1/6 is less than the value of4\5.
So, the answer is < .
Answer:
Here we will use the relationships:



And a number:

is between 0 and 1 if a is positive and larger than 1, and n is negative.
if a is positive and 0 < a < 1, then we need to have n positive such that:
0 < a^n < 1
A) 
This is between zero and 1,
B) 
This is greater than 1, because the exponent is positive.
C) 
Because a is smaller than 1, and the exponent is positive, then the expression is between 0 and 1.
D) 
The exponent is negative (and pair) then the expression is between 0 and 1.
Remember that when the exponent is pair, we always have that:
(-N)^m = (N)^m
So (-7)^-2 = 7^-2
