9+6= 17 is the total number of shirts to choose from. Since theres 6 dress shirts, the answer is 6/17.
Answer:
x = -4, y = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify the 1st equation by dividing each term by 4 to get:
x + 2y = -1
-5x + 2y = 23
Subtract to get: 6x = -24
x = -4
find 'y': 2y - 5(-4) = 23
2y + 20 = 23
2y = 3
y = 3/2
The number of students in Mr. Boggs’s homeroom is equal to b. Add the total number of students in each class and set it equal to 90.
90 = b + 1.5(b + 2) + 15 + (2b – 9)
Use the Distributive Property, and collect like terms. 90 = b + 1.5b + 3 + 15 + 2b – 9
90 = 4.5b + 9
A simple answer is because 4 and 5/4 is equal to 5 and 1/4. Because 5/4 is 1/4 more than 4/4, or 1.
