Answer:

x = 1, y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = -1

5x + 2y = 7

If we multiply the whole second equation by 2, we get:

10x + 4y = 14

Adding this to the first equation:

10x + 4y + 3x - 4y = 14 - 1

13x = 13

x = 1

Applying this to the second equation:

5 (1) + 2y = 7

2y = 2

y = 1

Which expression shows that the quotient

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is $\frac{2}{(3x-1)}$ ÷ $\frac{6}{6x-1}$

We further simplify this expression,

$\frac{2}{(3x-1)}$ ÷ $\frac{6}{6x-1}$

= $\frac{2}{(3x-1)}\times \frac{6x-1}{6}$

= $\frac{6x-1}{3(3x-1)}$

= $\frac{6x-1}{(9x-3)}$

Therefore, $\frac{6x-1}{(9x-3)}$ will be the quotient of the given expression.

$x\neq \frac{1}{3}$ and $x\neq \frac{1}{6}$ for which the given expression is not defined.

Option (2) will be the answer.

Aya = a1 + (n - 1)d

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

The 26th term of an arithmetic sequence is:

$a_{26}=67$

Hence, option A is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a₁ = -33

d = 4

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by

$a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d$

substituting a₁ = -33 and d = 4 in the nth term of the sequence

$a_n=-33+\left(n-1\right)4$

$\:a_n=-33+4n-4$

$a_n=4n-37$

Thus, the nth term of the sequence is:

$a_n=4n-37$

now substituting n = 26 in the nth term to determine the 26th term of the sequence

$a_n=4n-37$

$a_{26}=4\left(26\right)-37$

$a_{26}=104-37$

$a_{26}=67$

Therefore, the 26th term of an arithmetic sequence is:

$a_{26}=67$

Hence, option A is true.

How do you do this?<br> Because i don't know how to do it :>

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

£ 7.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total money = £ x

Money spend on drinks and cake = 1.45 + 1.20 = £ 2.65

Money left with her = (2/3) of x

So, money spend = (1/3) of x

$\dfrac{1}{3}*x= 2.65\\\\\\x=2.65*3\\\\$

x = £ 7.95
