The answers would be letter b
Use the substitution method:
2x - 6y = -12
x - 2y = -8
Then x = 2y - 8
Substitute in the first equation:
2(2y - 8) - 6y = -12
4y - 16 - 6y = -12
-2y = 4
y = -2
Now substitute y in one of the two equations given you prefer:
For example x-2*(-2) = -8
x + 4 = -8
x = -12
The solutions are x = -12 and y = -2
V = 30cm³
H = 3cm
W = 5cm
L = ?
V = H × W × L
therefore:
3 × 5 × L = 30
15L = 30
L = 30 : 15
<u>L = 2 (cm)</u>
By setting up a system of equations we can easily solve this problem. Let's denote Jane's working hours with x and Jack's working hours with y. Since they don't want to work more than 65 hours, the first equation is x+y=65. The second equation is 14x+7y=770. By solving this system of equation , we find that y=20 hours, which is Jack's maximum working hours.
Answer:
-30.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are dividing by a negative number to get a positive one, so we need the other number to also be negative.
We can re-write this as -5 * 6
This can be simplified into -30.
