Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair.
motikmotik
Ur gonna have to pick an equation and solve for a variable.

2x - 2y = 6
2x = 2y + 6 ...divide everything by 2 because u want x by itself
x = y + 3

now we sub y + 3 in for x in the other equation
14x - 2y = 78
14(y + 3) - 2y = 78...distribute thru the parenthesis
14y + 42 - 2y = 78...subtract 42 from both sides, cancelling the 42 on the left
        -42          -42
-----------------------
14y - 2y = 36 ...simplify
12y = 36...divide by 12 on both sides, cancelling out the 12 on the left
y = 36/12
y = 3

now , we already know that x = y + 3...and we know y = 3...so sub in 3 for y and solve for x
x = y + 3
x = 3 + 3
x = 6

solution is (6,3)

it is always a good idea to check ur answer by subbing it into one or both of the equations to see if it is correct
2x - 2y = 6......(6,3)...x = 6 and y = 3
2(6) - 2(3) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)

so yes, ur solution is (6,3)

In May Mr. Lee's earings were 60 percent of the Lee family's total income. In June Mr. Lee earned 20 percent more than in May. I
murzikaleks [220]

Answer: 64.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total earnings of the Lee family in May be x

Amount earned by Mr Lee in May = 60% of x = 0.6x

Amount earned by other family members in May = x - 0.6x (total earnings - Mr Lee's earnings) = 0.4x

Amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 20% more than what Mr Lee earned in May.

That is, amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 1.2 × 0.6x = 0.72x

Amount earned by other members of the family in June remains unchanged, that is = 0.4x

Total amount earned by the Lee family in June = 0.72x + 0.4x = 1.12x

Percentage of total earnings in June earned by Mr. Lee = (0.72x/1.12x) × 100% = 64.29%.

A​ student's course grade is based on one midterm that counts as 5​% of his final​ grade, one class project that counts as 25​%
Mumz [18]

Answer:

His overal final score is 81.2. His letter grade is a B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weighed average:

The sum of all values multiplied by it's weight. The weight is a proportion(a value between 0 and 1).

So.

Score of 72 on the midterm, which counts 5%.

Score of 83 on the project score, which counts 25%.

Score of 91 on homework assignments, which counts 35%.

Score of 74 on the final exam, which counts 35%.

His grade is:

G = 72*0.05 + 83*0.25 + 91*0.35 + 74*0.35 = 82.1.

His overal final score is 81.2.

At least 80 but less than 90 is a​ B

So his letter grade is a B.

Simplify the expression (k2)4
lilavasa [31]

4 times 2= 8. so, 4times k2 = k8. To understand this better, imagine that k equaled 2. That would make the expression above = (2x2)4, which would equal 16. However, since we don't know the value of k, we have to use the numbers that we already have, It would be like solving the expression: (2x2)4 without multiplying the first 2. It would then be 2x8. So, we just simplified it, we didn't solve it.
