The answer is 3: 3+5+8=5+8+3
A fish is 12 Meters below the surface of the ocean. What is the elevation it is -12
Answer:
16x-20
Step-by-step explanation:
(8x-30)+6x+(2x+10)
8x-30+6x+2x+10
8x+6x+2x-30+10
14x+2x-20
16x-20
<h3><u>
The value of y is 1.6</u></h3><h3><u>
The value of x is 4.5</u></h3>
By elimination:
2x + 5y = 17
6x - 5y = 19
<em><u>We can add the second equation to the first in order to isolate one variable.</u></em>
(2x + 5y) + (6x - 5y)
8x = 17
<em><u>Because we added the left side, we have to add the right side here as well.</u></em>
17 + 19 = 36
8x = 36
<em><u>Divide both sides by 8</u></em>
x = 4.5
We can plug this value back into the original equation to find the value of y.
2(4.5) + 5y = 17
9 + 5y = 17
<em><u>Subtract 9 from both sides.</u></em>
5y = 8
<em><u>Divide both sides by 5.</u></em>
y = 1.6
