Answer:

x=4, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this set of equations using elimination.

Multiply the first equation by 3:

15x-6y=54

Multiply the second equation by 5:

15x+15y=75

Now we take (15x+15y=75)\\ - \\(15x-6y=54)

21y=21

Therefore, y=1.

To solve for x, substitute y=1 into the second equation.

3x+3y=15

3x+3(1)=15

3x+3=15

3x=12

Hence, x=4.

Hello!

3/4 = 0.75 as a decimal

Half an hour = 0.5 2 ÷ 0.5 = 4 There are four half hours in 2 hours.

0.75 × 4 = 3

ANSWER:

Jen will have picked 3 gallons of strawberries in 2 hours.

How can 8 students share a pizza cut into 12 slices without cutting any of the slices?
Triss [41]
Hmmm...
We have to divide 12 by 8, since we need to see how 8 students will share 12 slices.

12/8=1 and 1/2

So, each student can have a slice and a half, but since we aren't allowed to cut the slices...

We can let each student have one slice, with 4 left over, so...

Every student can have one slice, and then half can have a second slice :)!

I'm not sure if that is what was meant by the question, but that was all I could think of.

I hope I helped! :)
