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.

9 × 9 = 81

9 plus itself 9 times equals 81

the nines table goes 9,18,27,36,45,54,63,72,81,90

To check the two numbers add up to 9 for 1-10 multiples

Algebra would be m × m =m^2

^means to the power and the 2 means we are doing it to the power of two [Also known as squaring]

This works because they are both the same number

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

255 were laptops.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 75% of the computers sold are laptops, you'd multiply the total amount of computers sold (340) times the percentage (75% = .75).

So, 340 x .75 = 255.

PLEASE HELP ASAP 30 PTS
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

c  (2,3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+y+z = 7

x+3y-z =13

y = 2x-1

Add the first two equations together to eliminate z

3x+y+z = 7

x+3y-z =13

----------------------

4x+4y = 20

Divide by 4

4x/4 + 4y/4 = 20/4

x+y = 5

We know y = 2x-1.  substitute this into the equation

x+ (2x-1) = 5

Combine like terms

3x-1 =5

Add 1 to each side

3x-1+1 =5+1

3x=6

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 6/3

x=2

Now we can find y

y = 2x-1

y = 2(2)-1

y =4-1

y= 3

We know x and y, now we need to find z

3x+y+z = 7

3(2) +3 +z = 7

6+3+z =7

9+z=7

Subtract 9 from each side

(-9+z =7-9

z=-2

So x=2,y=3 =-2
