Answer:
Given that x=5, when we substitute in 5 for 2x + 3 = 13, the equation will turn out to be true.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 = 13 x=5
2(5)+3=13
10+3=13
13=13
Step 1: -3(x+2y=3)
Step 2: -3x-6y=-9
Step 3: 3x cancels out with -3x
Step 4: add 2y and -2y, and add 3 and 5
Step 5: the answer is NO SOLUTION or INFINITE SOLUTION
Answer:
A = bh = (17 km)(11 km) = 187 km^2
The manager already hired 9 people. Let 
be the number of people he still can hire. Since these people will add to the 9 he already hired, when the hiring campaign will be over he will have hired 
people. We know that he can't hire more than 14 people, so the number of people hired must be less than or equal to 14:
If we subtract 9 from both sides, we have
so, the manager can hire at most 5 other people
