Answer:

x = 4 , y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)

y = x - 1 | (equation 2)

Express the system in standard form:

{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)

-x + y = -1 | (equation 2)

Add 1/2 × (equation 1) to equation 2:

{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)

0 x - y/2 = (-3)/2 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -2:

{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 3 | (equation 2)

Add 3 × (equation 2) to equation 1:

{2 x+0 y = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 3 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 2:

{x+0 y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 3 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 4 , y = 3

The shop declare a discount of 20% and later a discount of 15% after
Zolol [24]
Let, the original amount = x
First discount = x * 0.20 = 0.20x

Amount after first discount = x - 0.20x = 0.80x
Second discount = 0.80x * 0.15 = 0.12x

Amount after second discount = 0.80x - 0.12x = 0.68x
Difference would be: x-0.68x = 0.32x

So, Your Answer would be 32%

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Q matches to a and P matches to b

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a volume question so we can use the volume of a cylinder to see which one corresponds to what.  Volume of a cylinder is \pir^{2}h.  We know that the heights of the cylinders are the same since the diagram says so.  We also know pi is the same since thats a constant.  The only thing thats different is the radius (as you can see radius of P is bigger than Q).  If the radius of P is bigger than Q and all the other things are the same (height is the same and pi is the same), then that automatically means that P has more volume than Q.  More volume means more time to fill up.  Since Q has less volume, it will take less time to fill up.  So now we look at the graph.  A shows that the height of water increases at a faster rate than that of B.  This is because there is less volume in that container (less volume=less time to fill up).  Therefore a matches to Q and therefore b matches to P
