The correct answer would be A. There is only a 1/8th percent chance of the spinner landing on 4.
Equation 1 ==> y - x = -13
Equation 2 ==> -4x + 3y = -51
3(y - x) = 3(-13)
Equation 3 ==> 3y - 3x = -39
Equation 2 - 3
= (3y - 3y) + ( -4x - (-3x) ) = -51 - (-39)
-x = -12
x = 12
Substitude x into equation 1
y - 12 = -13
y = -1
Yes! Let me help you!
Here is the original equation, lets solve this step-by-step
(x + 2)/4 = 5
Now, lets find out how.
We must apply the inverse operation.
4/2 is the reciprocal, so lets multiply that to both sides.
4/2 = 2
5*4 = 20
4x + 8 = 20
-8 -8 Subtract 8 from both sides. (Inverse operation)
4x = 12
4x/4 = 12/4 Divide 4 by both sides (Inverse)
x = 12/4
x = 3 Simplified
Answer: x = 3
No? I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be because 25 to 16 and then 5 to 4 if you multiplied by 5 it would be 25 to 20 so no.
