Answer: He is not correct.

Steps:

Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.

x_2 = \frac{5}{4}x_1\\\frac{4}{5}x_2 =x_1

In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),

then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.

Solve the system of equations by substitution.<br> y = 5x - 13<br> 4x + 3y = 18<br> The solution is
Rudik [331]

Answer:

x=3 and y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) 4x+3(5x-13)=18

expand into 4x+15x-39=18

18+39= 57

15x+4x= 19x

57/19= 3 so x=3

substitute 3 into y= 5x - 13

and you get 2 so y=2

Factor each expression.<br><br> (9) 5a - 25<br><br> (10) 28 - 7x<br><br> (11) 12z + 28 - 7z - 3
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look for the GCF and then divide every term by the GCF to see what remains

(9) 5a - 25  ( GCF is 5 so take out 5 and divide every term by 5)

     5(a-5)

(10) 28 - 7x     ( GCF is 7 so take out 7 and divide every term by 7)

     7(4-x)

(11) 12z + 28 - 7z - 3=  (combine terms) =

       5x+25( GCF is 5 so take out 5 and divide every term by 5)

        5(x+5)
