Answer:

we will multiply equation x+y=17 by (-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Maria has two equations to solve by elimination method:

4x + 9y = 59 ---- (1)

x +y = 17 ----------(2)

To start with elimination method we will multiply equation (2) by (-9) first,

-9x - 9y = -153  -------(3)

Now we will add equation (1) to equation (3)

4x + 9y = 59

<u>-9x - 9y = -153</u>

-5x  = -94

5x = 94

x = 94/5

By putting x = 94/5 in equation (2)

\frac{94}{5}+ y = 17

y = 17 - \frac{94}{5} = \frac{85-94}{5}

= (\frac{-9}{5})

Answer :  we will multiply equation x+y=17 by (-9)

specific home stereo system: 3.99/59=0.0676.

selected theme park admission prices: 4/1499=0.002668

Answer:

2 7/24C

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by finding the common denominator. In this case, it's 24. Next, start translation.

2/3C = 16/24C

7/8C = 21/24C

3/4C = 18/24C

Then find the sum.

16/24C + 21/24C + 18/24C = 55/24C = 2 7/24C
