In this item, we are not given with the choices for the ordered pair which could be the solution to the given equation. What can be done is to assume a value for one of the variables and solve for the other. To be able to find one that satisfies let x be equal to zero and substitute to the given equation.
-3(0) - 7y = 37
Simplifying,
-0 - 7y = 37
The value of y from the equation is 37/7. Thus, one of the ordered pairs that satisfies the equation is,
(0, 37/7)
0.5 pounds = 8 ounces
There are 16 ounces in a pound, and you only need half a pound so
16/2 = 8
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
im not completely sure tho
X + y = 24....multiply by -3
3x + 5y = 100
---------------
-3x - 3y = - 72 (result of multiplying by -3)
3x + 5y = 100
--------------add
2y = 28
y = 28/2
y = 14
x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 24 - 14
x = 10
solution is (10,14)...and x represents 3 point q's and y represents 5 point q's......so this tells me there are 10 three point q's and 14 five point q's.
Answer:
y=1
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+y=-14
4x+4y=-16
y=-3x-14
4x+4y=-16
y=-3x-14
4(-3x-14)+4x=-16
y=-3x-14
-8x-56=-16
y=-3x-14
-8x=40
y=-3x-14
x=-5
y=1
x=-5
