Remark. The easiest way to solve this is to make the coefficients of one of the letters = to the same coefficient in the other equation
Set up and solve
x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100 Multiply the first equation by 3
<u>3x + 3y = 72 </u> Subtract
2y = 28 Divide by 2
y = 28/2
y = 14 <<<<<< Answer for y
Step 2
Solve for x
x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24 Subtract 14 from both sides.
x = 24 - 14
x = 10 <<<<Answer for x
Check to see if it works.
3x + 5y = 100
3*10 + 5*14 = 100
30 + 70 = 100 Checks.

Answer:
plug it into a calculator and you get 0.001
Step-by-step explanation:
50/50=1
then put in the decimal places to get 0.001
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.
when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:
21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24
3)
82 + p >= 150
p>= 150 - 82
p>= 68
answer A.
