Answer:
11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
(1 1/10)/(1 1/5) = 1.1/1.2 = 11/12
__
You can also work this using improper fractions:
(1 1/10)/(1 1/5) = (11/10)/(6/5) = 11/10×5/6 = (11×5)/(6×10)
= (11×5)/(6×2×5) = 11/(6×2) = 11/12
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
