Answer:

x= -13

y= -28

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the two numbers, write a system of equations with x as one number and y as another:

x-y=15

5x=2y-9

Use substitution to substitute one equation into another. Then solve for the variable.

x=15+y into 5x=2y-9

becomes

5(15+y) = 2y-9

75+5y = 2y- 9

75+3y= -9

3y = -84

y= -28

To find x, substitute y= -28 into one equation.

x - (-28) = 15

x+28 =15

x = 15-28

x=-13

Candy Crunchers wants to see if their new candy is enjoyed more by high school or middle school students. They decide to visit o
umka21 [38]
The sample % of these two populations would be 100/size (of student body at each school) x 100 so this would compare the two student bodies preferences for the particular type of candy bar. However, the actual % of the whole student body at each school would be a factor also. If the high school only had 200 students then this would be 50% representative but if the middle school had say 500 students this would only be 20% representative so this would have to be taken into account too. It might be more representative to have the same % of the student bodies respectively for the sample.

Answer:

They are (6, 1) or (3, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor pairs of 6 are 1×6 and 2×3

So the parallelogram (height by length) could be:

1 by 6

2 by 3

3 by 2

6 by 1.

400.0 ml of a gas are under pressure of 80.0 kpa what would the volume of the gas be at a pressure of 100.0 kpa
Ber [7]

Answer:

The final volume is 320 mL at pressure of 100 kPa.

Step-by-step explanation:

Boyle's law gives the relation between volume and pressure of a gas. It states that at constant temperature, volume is inversely proportional to its pressure such that,

V\propto \dfrac{1}{P}\\\\P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Let

V_1=40\ mL\\\\P_1=80\ kPa\\\\P_2=100\ kPa

We need to find V_2. Using above equation, we get :

V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{400\times 80\times 10^3}{100\times 10^3}\\\\V_2=320\ mL

So, the final volume is 320 mL at pressure of 100 kPa.
