If u multiply the first equation by -4, u get -2x - y = -20

and when u add the 2 equations..
-2x - y = -20
2x + 3/8y = 5
-----------------
0 - 5/8y = -15.....u notice that the x terms r eliminated.

gogolik [260]

Answer:

  $2355.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the compound interest formula, filling in the numbers you know. Then solve for the number you don't know.

  A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

where A is the account balance, P is the amount invested, r is the annual rate, n is the number of times per year interest is compounded, and t is the number of years.

Filling in the given values, we have ...

  4000 = P(1 +.053/52)^(52·10) = P(1.6984738)

  P = 4000/1.6984738 ≈ 2355.06

You would need to deposit $2355.06 in order to have $4000 in 10 years.

How many millimeters are there in 16 meters
Anika [276]
One of the very nice features of the metric system of measurements is that there is a set of standardized prefixes that can be applied to any of the units. Some of the more common ones are
.. micro- . . . one millionth
.. milli- . . . . one thousandth
.. centi- . . . .one hundredth
.. kilo- . . . . .one thousand

Thus, one millimeter is 1/1000 = 0.001 meter. There are 1000 of them in 1 meter, so
.. 16 m = 16000 mm
