6x + 7y = -9

-4x - 5y = 5

We can use either substitution or elimination. I prefer substitution so I will explain it that way. You can use elimination as well.

We can solve for x first so we will need to substitute y in terms of x.

6x + 7y = -9
7y = -9 - 6x
y = (-9 - 6x)/7

Plugging this into the other equation:

-4x - 5[(-9 - 6x)/7] = 5
-4x + (45 + 30x)/7 = 5
-28x  + 45 + 30x = 35
2x + 45 = 35
2x = - 10
x = -5

Insert this into the other equation to solve for y.

6(-5) + 7y = -9
-30 + 7y = -9
7y = 21
y = 3

Your answer should be (-5, 3). Hope this helps!

When two probabilities are multiplied, the probability represents a compound event
lesya [120]
True:  If we have two independent events and want to know the probability of their happening at the same time, we multiply the two probabilities together.  "Two events happening at the same time" is a compound event.  We more often see this as "P(xy)," the probability of x AND y.

17.5% as a fraction in simplest form?
Vsevolod [243]
17.5\% is the same thing as 0.175. We can rewrite this as \frac{175}{1000}. Or course this is not simplified, so we can simplify to get \boxed{\frac{7}{40}}.

Question: what is a unit rate? :()
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Rates. ... When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.
