There are three groups of people: 25 years old and younger, between 25 to 50, and 50 years old and older. Their fractions must equal to 1 because these three together form the whole.

1 = 1/3 + 2/7 + x
where x is the fraction for people ages 25 to 50 years old
x = 8/21

So, the actual number of people ages 25 to 50 years old is:

84(8/21) = 32 people

HELP<br> Solve the following systems using the elimination method.<br> 5x+2y = -16<br> 4x-2y = 16
velikii [3]

Answer:

x= 0 , y= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the 2 equations together, you would get:

9x = 0

Divide both sides by 9:

x = 0/9

x=0

Substitute the value of x in one of the equations to get the value of y, I picked the first one (5x+2y = -16)

5(0) +2y = -16

0+2y = -16

2y = -16

Divide both sides by 2:

y = -8
