Answer:

X=51/7, Y= -36/7

Step-by-step explanation:

X/3 + 2y/3 = -1 equ 1

X - y/3 = 9 equ 2

eliminate X/3.

X/3 + 2y/3 = -1..... x 1 ( co-efficient of X in equ2 )

X - y/3 = 9 ...... x 1/3 ( co-efficient of X in equ1 )

X/3 + 2y/3 = - 1 equ 3

X/3 - y/9 = 3 equ 4

0 + 7y/9 = -4

y = -36/7

( input the value of y into equ 4 )

X/3 -y/9 = 3

X/3 - (-36/7)/9 = 3

X/3 + 36/63 = 3

X/3 = 3 - 36/63

X/3 = 153/63

63X = 459

X = 459/63

X = 51/7.

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Aaron needs <u>2 more rolls</u> to complete the path.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total rolls Aaron has = 4

Part of path covered by using $\frac{3}{4}$ of a roll = $\frac{1}{8}$

So, in order to find the number of rolls required to cover the complete path is given using the unitary method.

Rolls used for $\frac{1}{8}$ of a path = $\frac{3}{4}$

Therefore, rolls used to cover the whole path is given by dividing the rolls used for one-eighth of the path and the path covered. This gives,

$=\frac{3}{4}\div \frac{1}{8}$

$=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{8}{1}$

$=\frac{3\times 8}{4\times 1}$

$=\frac{24}{4}$

$=6\ rolls$

Now, rolls required to complete the path is 6. But Aaron has only 4 rolls.

So, he will need 6 - 4 = 2 rolls more to complete the path.

How much fencing will John need? Use 22/7 for x.

Serjik [45]

Well 22/7 is 3.14 and so on but since there is a little more than 3 you need to make sure he covers up all the fencing places... SO John will need 4 fences
