You would solve using a proportion. 14/.56 = x/.56 (x is the unknown). Cross multiply and solve for x. Your answer is 25 total performers.

Determine whether each ordered pair is a solution of the system.
Stolb23 [73]

According to the system:

5 – 7x + 2y² = -10

1 – 5x – 2y = -22

______________

a) No ; (4, 6) is not a solution to the

system. This point does not touch either equation.

b) No ; (6, 4) is not a solution to the system. This point does not touch either equation.

Solutions:

( \frac{122 - 3 \sqrt{101}}{25}, \frac{ - 7 +3 \sqrt{101}}{10}) ≈ (3.674, 2.315) \\ ( \frac{122  +  3 \sqrt{101}}{25}, \frac{ - 7  - 3 \sqrt{101}}{10}) ≈ (6.086, -3.715)

x = ( 122 ∓ 3√101 ) / 25 ≈ 3.674 or 6.086

y = ( -7 ± 3√101 ) / 10 ≈ 2.315 or -3.715

A person died leaving behind inheritance of Rs. 300000. Distribute the amount among 4 sons and 3 daughters so that each son gets
yan [13]
S=2d

4s+3d=300000-80000

4s+3d=220000, now using s=2d in this equation you get:

4(2d)+3d=220000

8d+3d=220000

11d=220000

d=20000

So each daughter gets 20000 and each son gets 40000.

6x + 9y = -15
tester [92]
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation
You can divide 6x,9y and -15 by 3
6x/3=2x
9y/3=3y
-15/3=(-5)
Combine them to get the factored form of 6x+9y-15:
3(2x+3y-5)
