Solve the system of equations below5x+2y=92×-3y=15​

Mathematics
1 answer:
nirvana33 [79]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The solution is (3, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 9

2x - 3y = 15

Use elimination by addition/subtraction.  Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second by 2, obtaining:

15x + 6y = 27

4x   - 6y  =  30

----------------------

19x        = 57

This yields x = 3.

Substituting 3 for x into 5x + 2y = 9, we get  5(3) + 2y = 9, or

15 + 2y = 9, or

2y = -6

This yields y = -3.

The solution is (3, -3)

Obasi earns 150%, percent of his regular hourly wage while working overtime. What fraction of his regular hourly wage does Obasi
hammer [34]

Obasi earns 150% of his regular hourly wage while working overtime.

Let us convert percentage into fraction first:

To convert a percentage into fraction we need to use the following formula:

a%=\frac{a}{100}

Here, he earns 150% of his hourly wage while working overtime:

So,

150%==\frac{150}{100} =\frac{3}{2} =1.5

Obasi earns \frac{3}{2} of his hourly earnings or 1.5 times of his hourly earnings while working overtime.

There are five times as many cars as trucks on the road. Which fraction represents the number of vehicles that are trucks?
jonny [76]
Well, the ratio of cars to trucks is 5:1, so for every 1 truck, there are 5 cars, the sum would be 6. So that's the denominator, and then the numerator would be 1, since there's only 1 truck out of every 6 vehicles.

Answer:  D. 1/6
