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.

Describe how you would use the Distributive Property to simplify (39 × 5). (2 points)
alexandr402 [8]
Use of distributive property will be
(30 x 5) + (9 x 5)

21. the error for x - 28 = 375 is not 347 is because the student subtracted both sides by 28. 347 - 28 is 319 not 375. One must add 28 to both sides of -28 and 375. The -28 and 28 is zero. 375 + 28 = 403.

22. The next three terms are 0.93, 1.02, and 1.11. The rule in the number pattern is one must add 0.09.

Penny has a cup containing 10 quarters, 8 dimes, and 2 nickels. If Penny randomly draws with replacement, find the probability s
kogti [31]

Answer:

0.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, because the coins have been replaced, the final probability would be multiplying the same probability six times (or raising it to exponent 6.). In other words, the probability of a dime coming out.

This probability would be the amount of dimes divided by the total number of coins, as follows:

Total coins = 10 + 8 + 2 = 20 coins.

So the probability would be: 8/20 = 2/5

The final probability would then be:

(2/5) ^ 6 = 0.004

In other words, the probability of this event occurring 6 times in a row is 0.4%

There are 60 students in a class. Among them,20 students are girls .Find the ratio ofa. Boys and total studentsb. girls and tota
valina [46]

Answer:

Girls to boys = 1:2

Girls to students = 1:3

Boys to students = 2:3

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's subtract the number of girls from the number of students in the class:

60 - 20 = 40

This means that for every 20 girls there are 40 boys in the ratio of girls to boys:

20:40

This can be simplified down by factoring, here we can divide by 20:

(20 ÷ 20) : (40 ÷ 20)

1:2

So the ratio of girls to boys is 1:2

The ratio of boys to students can be calculated via:

40:60

This can be simplified by dividing by 20 again:

(40 ÷ 20) : (60 ÷ 20)

2:3

So the ratio of boys to students is 2:3

The ratio of girls to students can be put in a ratio of:

20 : 60

This can be simplified down by dividing by 20:

(20 ÷ 20) : (60 ÷ 20)

1:3

So the ratio of girls to students is 1:3

Hope this helps!
