6-6a=3a-3b+1,    9a-3b=5
<span>4b - 8 =3a,           3a-4b=-8
</span> 
9a-3b=5
(3a-4b=-8 )*(-3 )

 
9a    -3b=    5
-9a+12b=+24
adding both equations
9b=29, b=29/9

3a=4b-8=4*29/9 -8=(4*29-8*9)/9 = 44/9
a=44/27
a-b=44/27 - 29/9=44/27 - 29*3/27=-43/27
this is a correct answer, unfortunately they do not have this choice, probably they made mistake somewhere. I even check the solution of equations by substitution values of a and b into equations

Jessiah has 6 more pencils than grace. miles has twice as many pencils as jessia. they have a total of 50 pencils together. how
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Jessiah has 14 pencils

Miles has 28 pencils

Grace has 8 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume that you mean Jessaih instead of Jessia because otherwise it would be impossible to solve

Let the # of Jessaih's pencils equal j, # of Grace's pencils equal g, # of Miles' pencils equal m,

j=g+6

m=2j

So m=2(g+6) or 2g+12

Therefore, g+g+6+2g+12, or 4g+18=50, so g = 8

j=8+6, which is 14

m = 2(14), which is 28

The picture below shows a right-triangle-shaped charging stand for a gaming system:
Setler79 [48]

This question is incomplete because it lacks the diagram of the right angles shaped charging stand.

Find attached to this answer, the appropriate diagram.

Answer:

3(tan 50°)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we would be using the Trigonometric function called Tangent.

tan θ = opposite side/ adjacent side

θ = 50°

Opposite side (Height)= Side AC = Unknown

Adjacent side = Side BC = 3 inches

Hence,

tan 50° = Side AC/ Side BC

tan 50° = Side AC / 3

Cross multiply

tan 50° × 3 = Side AC

3(tan 50°) = Side AC

Therefore, the expression shows the height, AC, of the charging stand is

3(tan 50°).
