Answer: The answer is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Because you multiply the length by width to get area you just divide the area by either the length or width to find the missing length.
To solve the question, the both equations should have a positive value and a negative value with same number. Then one variable can be eliminated.
To eliminate X term first, we should multiply the first equation by 2 and second one by 3.
Then,
6X - 12Y = -30
-6X + 15Y = 70
Or
To eliminate Y term first, we should multiply the first equation by 5 and second one by 6.
Then,
15X - 30Y = -75
-12X + 30Y = 84
According to the choices given 'A' is the correct answer.
Answer:
The first set is a solution, the second is not.
Step-by-step explanation:
Testing by filling in the numbers into the equation:
(1, 1.5): x=1, y=1.5
⇒ 1.5 =? 
· 1 + 
⇒ 1.5 =? +
⇒ 1.5 =? 
⇒ 1.5 =? 1.5 ⇒ Correct: is indeed solution to the equation
(12, 4): x=12, y=4
⇒ 4 =? · 12 +
⇒ 4 =? 
+
⇒ 4 =? 
⇒ Incorrect: this is not a solution for the equation

Complete Question
Three dressers are placed side by side. One dresser is 3 feet 9 inches wide, another is 3 feet 3 inches wide, and the third is 5 feet 11 inches wide. How wide are they combined? Write your answer in feet and inches. Use a number less than for inches
Answer:
12 feet 11 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the above question, we would have to add up all the width of thee dressers together.
Hence:
3 feet 9 inches + 3 feet 3 inches + 5 feet 11 inches
= (3 feet + 3 feet + 5 feet) + (9 inches + 3 inches + 11 inches)
= 11 feet +( 23 inches)
Note that
12 inches = 1 feet
Hence:
11 feet (23 inches/12 inches)
11 feet (1 feet + 11 inches)
= 12 feet 11 inches.
Therefore, the width of the 3 dressers combined = 12 feet 11 inches
