Answer:

D) multiply second equation by -6, solution (0,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations.

As such, in the given set of equations

12x – 3y = 6

2x – y = 2

We may make the coefficients of x the same by multiplying the second by 6 or the coefficient of y by multiplying the second by 3. Using the first

12x – 3y = 6

12x – 6y = 12

equation 1 - equation 2

3y = -6

y =  -2

2x + 2 = 2

x = 0

Nine less than a number is no more than 8 and is no less than 3
frozen [14]

9 - x < 8 => -x < 8 - 9 => -x < -1 => x > 1

9 - x > 3 => -x > 3 -9 => -x > -6 => x < 6

So the number is between 1 and 6, notation 1 < x < 6

for every 6 girls on the softball team there are 9 boys on the baseball team if there are 50 students on both teams how many are
taurus [48]
Key info-there are nine boys for every six girls on the softball team

9/6

9(3)=27. 6(3)18

18+27=45 5 more to go

if there is 50 students on each of the teams

9(5)=45
6(8)=48

As one can see,they both cannot multiply up to 50,but they round up.

Lauren bought 5 pizzas for $17 each. She paid with a $100 bill.
Lelechka [254]
The first blank is 17
2nd blank is 85
3rd blank is 15

wat happened is
C=paid-costofpizzas
paid=100
costofpizzas=number of pizzas times cost per pizza
costofpizzas=5 times 17

so
C=100-5 times 17
C=100-85
C=15
change=$15
