If there are 2.6 million death per year how many deaths per minute
OlgaM077 [116]
Minutes per year is the main thing to figure out here which takes a tiny bit of multiplying but you'll end up with 525,600 minutes
just divide the deaths per year by minutes per year and it should give you the correct answer
2,600,000/525,600 = 4.95 so if you end up rounding, just about 5 deaths per minute

Alecsey [184]

Answer: 101

Step-by-step explanation:

45 women total

17 women will not watch the game

So 33 people did not want to watch the game and 17 are women

33-17 = 16 men who won’t watch the game

So 40 men who will and 16 men who won’t equals 56 men and 45 women

56+45= 101

−4x+7y+5=0<br> x−3y=−5<br> ​ <br><br> How many solutions does the system have?
xeze [42]

   

Solution:  

Using Substitution Method:

-4x+7y=-5   (Equation 1)

x-3y=-5       (Equation 2)

get the value of x from Equation 2

x=3y-5     (Equation 3)  

Put the value of x from Equation 3 in Equation 1

-4(3y-5)+7y=-5

-4(3y)+20+7y=-5

-12y+7y=-5-20

-5y=-25

Negative sign on both sides cancels each other

y=25/5

y=5

Putting value of y in equation 3

x=3(5)-5

x=15-5

x=10

Therefore,   [x,y]=[10,5]

Using Elimination Method

-4x+7y=-5   (Equation 1)

x-3y=-5       (Equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 with -4 in order to eliminate the x term

-4(x-3y)=-5*4

-4x+12y=20     (Equation 3)

Adding Equation 1 and 3

-4x+7y=-5    

-4x+12y=20    

+    -     = -   (Change Of Sign with x and y terms)

-----------------

0x-5y = -25

-5y=-25

y=5  

Substituting y’s value is Equation 1

-4x+7(5)=-5

-4x+35=-5

-4x=-40

Cancellation of negative sign on both sides

x=40/4

x=10

[x,y]=[10,5]
