Answer:
4≠5
There is no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
2(L + W) < = P
L = 2W + 4
P 38
2(2W+4 + W) = 38
4W + 8 + 2W = 38
6W + 8 = 38
6W = 38 - 8
6W = 30
W = 30/6 = 5....the greatest possible value is 5
<h3>
Answer: 81</h3>
Work Shown:
x = number of cats
(4 cats)/(5 dogs) = (x cats)/(45 dogs)
4/5 = x/45
4*45 = 5x
180 = 5x
5x = 180
x = 180/5
x = 36
There are 36 cats and x+45 = 36+45 = 81 cats and dogs total.
Answer:
(-3,-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
okay so what we can do here is elimination
we can do this first by multiplying the entire second equation by 2
so then it would become
2(5x-2y=1)
10x-4y=2
now we can add the two equations together which will eliminate y
so
-8x+4y=-8 plus
10x-4y=2 equals
2x=-6
we did that by combining like terms
next we can simplify that
x=-3
now we can plug that into the equation
-8(-3)+4y=-8
simplify
24+4y=-8
4y=-32
y=-8
our answer would be
(-3,-8)
