Equation 1) -2x-y=-9
Equation 2) 5x-2y=18
Multiply all of equation 1 by 2, so that both equations have (2y) in them.
1) 2(-2x-y=-9)
Simplify.
1) -4x-2y=-18
2) 5x-2y=18
Subtract equations with each other.
-9x=-36
Divide both sides by -9.
x=4
Plug in 4 for (x) into equation 1.
-2x-y=-9
-2(4)-y=-9
Simplify.
-8-y=-9
Add 8 to both sides.
-y=-1
Divide both sides by -1.
y=1
(4, 1)

Answer:
-1,325 ft below sea level
Step-by-step explanation:
0(surface level) - 1,500 = -1,500
-1,500 + 525 = -975
-975 - 350 = -1,325
Answer:
You need a number line to complete this problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is fairly simple
Plug in the numerical values given for each variable.
5(-2) -3(2) -(-3)
-10 -6 + 3 (negative x negative = positive)
-16 + 3
-13 is the final answer
Hello again!
Answer is 60%

so, for this one you first figure out how many study French.
2/9 of 270 is 60 (simple method: 1/9 is 270 divided by 9, which is 30. So 2/9 is 1/9 multiplied by 2, which is 60).
60 are doing French.
Then use this in the ratio of French to Spanish (3:7) and you have 3 and 60 on the same side. You have to multiply 3 by 20 to get to 60 (or divide 60 by 20 to get 3).
So the number you use to do the same to the other side of the ratio is 20.
7 multiplied by 20 (or 7 multiplied by 10, then multiply that by 2) to get 140.
140 are doing Spanish.
Then take the French and Spanish from the big total and you get 270-140-60=70
70 are doing German.
Of these 70, 42 are boys. 70-42 gives 28 girls. 42/70 is the fraction of boys doing German. This is the same as 6/10 and to get a percentage you multiply the fraction by 10 so that the bottom of it is out of 100 (so that’s 60/100).
And 60/100 is the same as 60%.
So your answer is 60%
