Answer:

(-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

5/2(3/4x + 1/3y = -1/2)

1/2x - 5/6y = -7/2

15/8x + 5/6y = -5/4

19/8x = -19/4

x = -2

1/2(-2) - 5/6y = -7/2

-1 -5/6y = -7/2

-5/6y = -5/2

y = 3

Katie, Elizabeth, and Siobhan volunteer at the hospital. In a week, Katie volunteers 3 hours more than Elizabeth does and Siobha
VladimirAG [237]
Let us assume the number of hours volunteered by Katie = x
Number of hours volunteered by Elizabeth = y
Number of hours volunteered by Siobhan = z
After one week, 
x = y + 3
z = y - 1
After 3 weeks
3x = 3 (y + z)
Dividing both sides by 3, we get
x = y + z

Putting the value of x from the first equation in the third equation, we get

x = y + z
y + 3 = y + z
z = 3

Now putting the value of z in the second equation, we get
z = y - 1
3 = y - 1
y = 4
Putting the value of y in the first equation, we get
x = y + 3
   = 4 + 3
   = 7
The number of hours volunteered by Katie = 7 hours
Number of hours volunteered by Elizabeth = 4 hours
Number of hours volunteered by Siobhan = 3 hours

What percent is $10,000 out of a 120.000
Svetlanka [38]
10,000 is 8.33% of 120,000.

10,000 / 120,000 = 0.0833 * 100% = 8.33%

Assuming that the whole and percentage is given. find the value of the percentage.

120000 * 8.33% = 9996 ⇒ 10,000

If the percentage is given and its corresponding value. find the whole

10,000 / 8.33% = 120,048 ⇒ 120,000
