Answer:
(x, y) = (77/240, -3/10)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to write the equations in standard form.
Multiplying the first equation by 21 gives ...
21y = 24x -14
Multiplying the second equation by 8 gives ...
24x +9y = 5
Then the system of equations in standard form is ...
Subtracting the first from the second, we get ...
(24x +9y) -(24x -21y) = (5) -(14)
30y = -9
y = -9/30 = -3/10
Substituting this into the second equation, we have ...
24x +9(-3/10) = 5
24x = 7.7 . . . . . . . add 27/10
x = 7.7/24 = 77/240
The solution is (x, y) = (77/240, -3/10).
left means subtracting
6 7/8 - 2 5/8
Whole numbers subtract each other
Numerators subtract each other
The denominators stay the same.
6-2= 4
7-5=2
4 2/8
Reduce 2/8. Divide by 2. 2/2= 1, 8/2= 4
4 2/8=4 1/4
Answer: 4 2/8 = 4 1/4 cups left
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
60 * 1/6 = 10
we can expect 10 times to roll the 2.
