Use the substitution method:
2x - 6y = -12
x - 2y = -8
Then x = 2y - 8
Substitute in the first equation:
2(2y - 8) - 6y = -12
4y - 16 - 6y = -12
-2y = 4
y = -2
Now substitute y in one of the two equations given you prefer:
For example x-2*(-2) = -8
x + 4 = -8
x = -12
The solutions are x = -12 and y = -2
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8=x/32
8x=96/32
x=12
hey just use symbolad it shows you step by step and gives you the answer.
The number of pieces of card stock which would result upon the process repetition is; 256 pieces.
<h3>What is the number of card stock pieces resulting from the cutting process?</h3>
According to the task content, it follows that since, there are 8 pieces of the 8 inches per side cards initially, the resulting number of cards after carrying out the process of cutting cards into half five, 5 times is;
No of cards = 8 (2)⁵
No. of cards = 256 pieces.
The size of each of the cards in discuss provided that all cuts will be made along and not across the longer edge is; 8 by 1/4 inches.
