Answer:

x = -10, and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2y = -48

2x + 3y = -23

First equation times -2: -10x + 4y = 96

Second equation times 5: 10x + 15y = -115

Add the last two equations: 19y = -19

y = -1

Substitute 1 for y in the first original equation.

5x - 2y = -48

5x - 2(-1) = -48

5x + 2 = -48

5x = -50

x = -10

Solution: x = -10, and y = -1

Wade was asked to solve this inequality:

frozen [14]

Answer:

The correct option is Option A: Yes, that is the correct step

Step-by-step explanation:

Wane was asked to solve the inequality $\large \frac{x}{3}\ge11$

He decides that he needs to multiply both sides by 3.

We need to tell if the step is correct?

So, solving the inequality

$\frac{x}{3}\ge11$

We need to multiply both sides by 3, to get value of x i.e.

$\frac{x}{3}*3\ge11*3\\x\geq 33$

So, Wanes step is correct.

The correct option is Option A: Yes, that is the correct step
