I think The answer would be A
19.18 / 2.8 = 6.85
So answer is D.6.850 h
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When the coefficients don't lend themselves to solution by substitution or elimination, then Cramer's Rule can be useful. It tells you the solutions to
are ...
- ∆ = bd -ea
- x = (bf -ec)/∆
- y = (cd -fa)/∆
Using that rule here, we find ...
∆ = 5·3 -6·2 = 3
a = (5·54 -6·41)/3 = 5·18 -2·41 = 90 -82 = 8
s = (41·3 -54·2)/3 = 41 -18·2 = 5
This math can be performed in your head, which is the intent of formulating the rule in this way.

Similarly, if you expect the solutions to be small integers (as here), then graphing is another viable solution method.

If you graph y=7x-9 and y=3x-1 the two lines will intersect at one point. That is how you graphically "solve" the system of equations.
Both of these lines are of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
So for y=7x-9, the slope is 7 and the y-intercept is -9
For y=3x-1, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is -1
....
The solution for this system occurs when both coordinates are equal to each other so we can say:
7x-9=3x-1 subtract 3x from both sides
4x-9=-1 add 9 to both sides
4x=8 divide both sides by 4
x=2, making y=3x-1 become:
y=3(2)-1=6-1=5, so the solution to the system of equations is:
