4x - 5y = -12
-x + 5y = 18
-------------------add
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2

4x - 5y = -12
4(2) - 5y = -12
8 - 5y = -12
-5y = -12 - 8
-5y = -20
y = -20/-5
y = 4

solution is (2,4) <==

Answer:

Surface Area: 310 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this:

A) Formula for Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism = 2 * ( l*w + w*h + h*l). Where l is length, w is width & h is height. Based on the question:

l = 10 inch

w = 5 inch

h = 7 inch

Surface Area = 2 * ( 10*5 + 5*7 + 7*10) = 310 square inches.

B) Formula for Area of Rectangle = l*w, where l is length & w is width.

Look at the picture, I have marked the corners O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z

If we calculate the Area of each rectangle and add them all we will get the surface area automatically.

Area of PQRS = 10*7 = 70 square inches
Area of STUV = 7*5 = 35 square inches
Area of VWXY = (7+5)*10 = 120 square inches
Area of ORYZ = 7*5 = 35 square inches
Area of RSVY = 10*5 = 50 square inches

Now add them all = 70+35+120+35+50 = 310 square inches.

Ben has a collection of 240 baseball cards. Of these cards, 30% once played

Luda [366]

Ok so lets start off with calculating the percentage. We have 240 cards so lets find 25% of them so lets use 240 times .25 we get 60 cards then take away 240 - 60 = 180. Next we do the 30% so 240 times .30 would be 72 so take away 180 from 72 thats 108. So there are 108 Houston Astros Cards.

What is 52/624 simplified?<br><br>(Hurry please)

ZanzabumX [31]

Hey there!

Simplifying fractions means dividing the numerator and the denominator by the same number.

So we know that both 52 and 624 are divisible by 2. However, it will take some time.

Turns out 624 is divisible by 52!

$\frac{1}{12}$ is the answer. Hope it helps!
