(A) 5x+2y=21
(B) -2x+6y=-34
multiply (A) by - 3→ -15x - 6y = - 63 (C)
Now add (C) to (B):
-15x - 6y = - 63 (C)
-2x + 6y =-34 (B)
----------- --------
-17x = - 97 and x = 97/17
Now replace x value in any of the equation and you'll find y = - 64/17
1st Answer (97/17 , - 64/17)
2nd Answer : 97/17 + (-64/17) = 97/17 - 64/17 = 33/17 ≈ 2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the initial ratio of 3 parts water to 5 parts fruit juice, you can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to determine the amount of water needed with just 1 part of fruit juice:

cross multiply: 5x = 3
divide: 5x/5 = 3/5 or x = 3/5
3/5 = 0.6 parts water
Answer:
3.47
Step-by-step explanation:
since the third decimal is less than 5 then it doesn't carry over to the 7 thus it remains 7.
