If 2m and 8m are the base and height of the parallelogram, then the area is 16.
Answer:
Length: meter
Mass: Kilogram
Volume of a solid: Cubic meter
Volume of a liquid: Liters
Temperature: Degree Celsius
Time: second
The formula for calculating density:

Use elimination
Multiply first equation by 4
12a - 8b = 56
12a + 9b = 39
Subtract both
-17b = 17
b = -1
Plug in -1 for b
3a - 2(-1) = 14
3a = 12, a = 4
Final answer: a = 4, b = -1
Roberto overtakes Juanita at the rate of (7.7 mi)/(11 h) = 0.7 mi/h. This is the difference in their speeds. The sum of their speeds is (7.7 mi)/1 h) = 7.7 mi/h.
Roberto walks at the rate (7.7 + 0.7)/2 = 4.2 mi/h.
Juanita walks at the rate 4.2 - 0.7 = 3.5 mi/h.
_____
In a "sum and diference" problem, one solution is half the total of the sum and difference. If we let R and J be the respective speeds of Roberto and Juanita, we have
R + J = total speed
R - J = difference speed
Adding these two equations, we have
2R = (total speed + difference speed)
R = (total speed + difference speed)2 . . . . . as computed above
We can write two division problems related the given equation as follows.
Division problem one :
Here 8 is in multiplication with -2 on the left side.
so when we bring this 8 on the right side, we will have to apply opposite operation of multiplication which is division.
so dividing (-16) by 8 on the right side, we have:

Division problem two :
Here -2 is in multiplication with 8 on the left side.
so when we bring this (-2) on the right side, we will have to apply opposite operation of multiplication which is division.
so dividing (-16) by (-2) on the right side, we have:
