Answer:
x=-8 and y=9
Step-by-step explanation:
rewrite the equations to x+2y=10,3x+4y=12
sub 2y from both sides x+2y-2y=10-2y
substitue x=10-2y in 3x +4y=12
3(-2y+10)+4y=12
distribute
add-30 to both sides
divide both sides by -2
y=9
sustitute 9 for y in -2y+10=x
x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
4) 24/30=4/5
5) 2/24=1/12
6)14/84=1/6
7) 20/45=4/9
8)7/49=1/7

Determine the area of K
First, we need to calculate the length of the rectangle J

This gives:

Divide both sides by 22


So, the length of the rectangle J is 20.
Since both shapes are similar, then:

Substitute the known values:

Express as fraction:

Make Length, the subject of formula



The area of K is:



Answer:
The third option, -1/2(30) = -15
Step-by-step explanation:
If it decreases by 1/2, we know it has to be -1/2, and the days we are given are 30. We need to multiply -1/2 by 30 in order to find the water level after 30 days, which would be -15 (inches?) I hope this helped.
