((36/9)*7)+36=64
<span>36 volunteers making meals divided by the ratio of volunteers that are making meals (9) multiplied by the ratio of people not making meals (7) plus the 36 people making meals to get the total amount of people (64).</span>
189 because 20.7 rounds to 21 and 9.18 rounds to 9
21 * 9 = 189
<u>To make this problem solvable, I have replaced the 't' in the second equation for a 'y'.</u>
Answer:
<em>x = -9</em>
<em>y = 2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solve the system:</u>
2x + 3y = -12 [1]
2x + y = -16 [2]
Subtracting [1] and [2]:
3y - y = -12 + 16
2y = 4
y = 4/2 = 2
From [1]:
2x + 3(2) = -12
2x + 6 = -12
2x = -18
x = -18/2 = -9
Solution:
x = -9
y = 2
