Step-by-step explanation:
You want to set one of the equations equal to either x or y. For this, I put x+y=-2 equal to y which would be y=-x-2. Then you plug this in to the other equation for y. This would give you 5x+2(-x-2)=2. When you factor the two into the parenthesis, combine like terms, and keep the x values on ones side and the other numbers on the other side, you get 3x=6
Answer: 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Take 12 and multiply it by 1.75 (12x1.75) and you’ll get 21
X = 5
Y = 6
Simply we just compare the two shapes and we can see that 6 decreases to 4..so we would assume the rest would decrease by 2. If we were not so sure we could simply do a^2 + b^2 = c^2 and fill in the numbers
estimate = (40 * 50) / (4 * 5)
= 2000 / 20 = 100 (answer)
Answer:
The bigger pot is a 9.1-quart pot
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial pot size = 6.5-quart
New pot is 40% bigger than the initial pot size
Bigger pot size = 6.5-quart + (0.4 × 6.5-quart) = 6.5-quart + 2.6-quart = 9.1-quart
