A.
let the number be n.
2n+5=45
2n=40
n=20
Basically we want to know how many times 5/8 goes into 5 1/4.
5 1/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 × 8/5 = 42/5 = 8.4 bags
Since we cannot have a fraction of a bag, he can fill 8 bags completely.
answer: 8 bags
Answer:
(- 5, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6x - 14y = 16 → (1)
- 2x + 7y = 17 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the x- term
6x - 21y = - 51 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x
0 - 35y = - 35
- 35y = - 35 ( divide both sides by - 35 )
y = 1
Substitute y = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (1)
- 6x - 14(1) = 16
- 6x - 14 = 16 ( add 14 to both sides )
- 6x = 30 ( divide both sides by - 6 )
x = - 5
solution is (- 5, 1 )
