Answer:
88 x 0.26 = 22.88% or 23%
The cube root of (n increased by 8), or ∛(n+8), is -0.5, or -1/2.
∛(n+8) = -1/2. To solve this for n, cube both sides, obtaining n+8 = -1/8.
Eliminate the fraction by mult. all three terms by 8: 8n + 64 = -1
Solving for n: 8n = -65, so that n = -65/8.
If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).
In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)
2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)
a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)
4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1
a = 6 + -2 = 4.
So a=4 and b=-1.
Answer:
$1654
Step-by-step explanation:
332+230= 562
273*4+562
1092+562
1654
The first option :
Multiply the first equation by 8 and the second equation by 2
would not result in the elimination of the variables in this system
