Answer:
a = 9.6 b = 11.2
Step-by-step explanation:
10 percent of 8 is .8
8 + (8 x .1) = 8.8
8.8 + .8 = 9.6
She will be paid 9.6 dollars after 1 full year of working, because working for one year is 12 months, and thats 10 percent of 8 twice. You can also put that as 20 percent of 8, aka 1.6
When you do 8+1.6 it equals 9.6
For the second part, that is 24 months, so 10 percent of 8 4 times. .8+.8+.8+.8 = 3.2
8+3.2 = 11.2
She will be paid 11.2 dollars after 2 full years of working.
Your answer isnt wrong, I dont know why your teacher is saying it is.
Answer: 22.5 . The weight of the elephant is "22.5 times greater" than the weight of the lion.
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
(weight of lion) * (x) = (eight of the elephant) ; Solve for "x" .
_____________________________________________________
→ Divide each side of the equation by "(weight of lion)" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
→ (weight of lion)*(x) / (weight of lion) = (weight of the elephant) /
(weight of lion) ;
________________________________________________________
→ x = (weight of the elephant) / (weight of lion) ;
__________________________________________________________
→ Plug in our "given values" ; and solve for "x" ;
__________________________________________________________
→ x = (<span>9*10</span>³) / (4*10²) = (9*10⁽³⁻²⁾) / 4 = (9*10¹) / 4 ;
__________________________________________________________
→ x = 90 /4 = 25/2 = 22.5 ; which is our answer.

(- 2, - 3) is a solution to the given system of equations.
Answer: Option D
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given equation are not presented in proper format. So, let assume the given system of are as below,
2 x - y = -1
2 x -4 y = 8
Now, subtract the second equation from the first, we get
(2 x - y) -(2 x - 4 y) = -1 -8
3 y = -9
y = -3 (obtained this when divide by 3)
Substituting y = - 3 into the first equation, we get
2 x - (-3) = - 1
2 x = - 1 + 3
x = - 2 (obtained when divide by 2)
Now, the answer is (x, y) = (- 2, - 3)
Volume = height x base x length as all the sides are 2cm
volume= 2x2x2 = 8cm³
