Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 6x+2y =-6 ......(1) and 3x-4y=-18 .....(2)

Solving equations (1) and (2) we get

12x+3x =-30, ⇒x= -2 and from equation (1), 2y= -6-6(-2) =6, ⇒ y=3

Therefore, the solution for the given set of equations is x= -2 and y=3

A) Solving the equations 8x+4y = -4 ....... (3)and 17x+2y =-28, we get  

8x -34x = -4 -(-56) =52, ⇒-26x =52, ⇒x=-2 and from equation )(3), we get -16+4y =-4, ⇒ y=3

Therefore, the solution x=-2 and y =3 match with the original solution.

B)Solving the equations 12x + 4y = 12 ....... (4)and 21x + 2y = −36, we get  

12x -42x = 12 -(-72) =84, ⇒-30x =84, ⇒x=-84/30.

Therefore, the solution x=-84/30 does not match with the original solution.

C) Solving the equations 6x + 8y = −36 ....... (4) and 15x + 6y = −60, we get 18x -60x = -108 -(-240) =132, ⇒-42x =132, ⇒x=-132/42

Therefore, the solution x=--3  do not match with the original solution.

D) Solving the equations 6x + y = 15 ....... (5) and 15x − y = −9, we get 6x +15x = 6, ⇒21x =6, ⇒x=2/7  

Therefore, the solution x=2/7  do not match with the original solution.

Therefore, option A) will have the same solution. (Answer)

In a fitness program, Pedro does 20 sit-ups on the first day, and increases this by 2 sit-ups everyday. Determine the day when t
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

day 540

Step-by-step explanation:

He increases his number of situps by 2 each day meaning on day 1 he'd do 2 extra, on day 2 he'd do 4 extra, on day he'd do 6 extra etc. We can show this by saying +2x where x is the day he is on.  Then since he started with 20 we have to add 20 so it would be 20+2x.  We want to know what day it is when he does 1100 situps so we can set our equation equal to 1100 and solve for X which is the day it would be.

20+2x=1100

2x=1080

I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything still unclear!

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

2 2/3 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

If your ratio is 3 flour to 4 sugar, and you use 2 cups of flour, set up your proportion as follows:

\frac{3}{4}=\frac{2}{x}

Cross multiply to get 3x = 8 and x = 8/3 which is 2 and 2/3 cups of sugar.
