Answer:

y = 3

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=5  ==   -2x - 2y = -10

2x-y = 1 ==  2x - y = 1    +

                  -------------------

                  -3y = -9

                  <u>y = 3</u>

x + y = 5

x + 3 = 5

<u>x = 2</u>

Step-by-Step:


(1) x+y=5
2x-y=1


(2) add column by column (positive y plus negative y cancels out, equaling 0)

3x=6


(3) divide both sides be 3

x=2


(4) sub 2 in for x for either equation ( i chose the top one)

2+y=5


(5) subtract 2 from both sides

y=3


(6) put your answer in ordered pairs

(2,3)



Hope this helps

If the volume of the pyramid shown is 360 inches cubed, what is its height?
GenaCL600 [577]
<h3>Answer: 9 inches (choice D)</h3>

Work Shown:

V = volume of pyramid

V = (1/3)*(area of base)*(height)

V = (1/3)*(12*10)*h

V = (1/3)*120h

V = 40h

Set this equal to the given pyramid volume 360 cubic inches and solve for h

40h = 360

h = 360/40

h = 9

The sum of two consecutive negative integers is -171. What is the number closest to zero?
Anton [14]
Consecutive numbers are always 1 away from each other
3,4

so consecutive is represented by
x and x+1
so sum is -171
x+x+1=-171
add like terms
2x+1=-171
subtract 1 from both sides
2x=-172
divide both sides by 2
x=-86
subustitute
x+1=otehr number
x+1=-86+1=-85
answer is -85 and -86

How many solutions does 0.75(x+40)=0.35(x+20)+0.35(x+20) have?
Neporo4naja [7]
Only one because there is one variable and the combined coefficients of x are non-zero.
(0.75(x+40)=0.70(x+20), 0.05x=14-30=-16, x=-320)

AlexFokin [52]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

According to the rule of BODMAS

We will first do division then Multiplication then addition and in the last we do subtraction

So

12 ÷ 2 + 4 – 2 × 3 will be done as

= (12 ÷ 2) + 4( – 2 × 3)

= 6+4-6

= 4
