What is smaller than 1/2?
Smaller than 0.5 is 0.3
0.3 = 1/3
A fraction smaller than 1/2 and bigger than 0 is 1/3
Final answer: 1/3
Answer:
The y-value is -20
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's solve this by Elimination method;
-2(4x + 5y = -12)
4(2x + 3y = -16)
Let's Distribute;
-8x - 10y = 24
8x + 12y = -64
So x cancels out because -8 + 8 = 0
-10y + 12y = 2y
24 - 64 = -40
2y = -40
Divide both sides by 2;
y = -20
Now lets plug in y to find the value of x;
4x + 5(-20) = -12
4x - 100 = -12
Add 100 to both sides;
4x = 88
Divide both sides by 4;
x = 22
That's <u>always</u> true if <em>either</em> the exponent <em>or </em>the base is less than ' 1 '.
(But not always of they both are.)
