It is is y = -3
Good luck!!
for any fraction a/b, the decimal format of it is just a ÷ b.
A)
is the number rational?
well, a rational number is one we can write as a ration or fraction, well clearly is a fraction so it is rational.
B)
can it be written as a repeating/recurring decimal? well, 9/20 is 0.45, so -9/20 is -0.45, no repeating decimal like 0.454545......... , just a plain vanilla -0.45, so nope.
C)
is it less than -0.4?
well, let's recall that for the negative side on the number line, the closer to 0, the larger the number, so then -1,000,000 is much smaller than -1, because -1 is closer to 0.
who is closer -0.4 or -0.45?
|--------------------- -0.45 -------- -0.40 ------------------- 0 --------------- 1 -------------------|
so, -0.45 is farther from 0, and therefore is smaller than -0.4, so yes.
Answer:
(3,-3)
y= -3
x= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+2y=9
2x-3y=15
solve the equation
x=9/5-2/5y
2x-3y=15
substitute the value of x into an equation
2(9/5-2/5y)-3y=15
distribute
18/5-4/5y-3y=15
subtract -4/5 to -3
18/5-19/5y=15
subtract 18/5 from both sides
-19/5=57/5
divide both sides by -19/5
y= -3
substitute the value of y into an equation
x=9/5-2/5(-3)
distribute
x=9/5+6/5
add 9/5 to 6/5
x=3
