<span>3x + y= 17        (a)
4x + 2 y = 20    (b)

Multiply (a) by 2:

6x + 2y = 34   (a)
4x + 2y = 20   (b)

make:   (a) - (b)

2x = 14 -----> x =7

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

Replace the value of x = 7 in one of anterior equation:

</span>3x + y= 17  
3 x 7 + y = 17
21 + y = 17
y = 17 - 21
y = -4

What is the solution to the inequality? -3x &lt; 24 
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

x > -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by -3 to get x by itself. Dividing by a negative number will switch the less-than symbol to a greater-than symbol. -3x ÷ -3 = x and 24 ÷ -3 = -8. When you put it all together, you get x > -8

On a fishing excursion, jeannie keeps 1/4 of the fish she catches and releases the remainder of the fish back into the lake. if
postnew [5]
To find 1/3 of 3/4 we divide the fraction by 3 which is equal to 1/4 or alternatively we can multiply the denominator by 3 which gives us 3/12 (1/4=3/12)
So 3/12 of the realesed fish are trout

To find 2/3 of 1/4 we need to first divide 1/4 by 3 which is equal to multiplying the denominator times 3 which gives us 1/12 and then we multiply by 2 which gives us 2/12
So 2/12 of the kept fish are trout

To find the total amount we add 2/12 and 3/12
3/12+2/12= 5/12

ANSWER:
5/12 of the fish she catches are trout
