Answer:

a + b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system of equations, we can use a strategy called elimination, which is when we get rid of a variable by adding/subtracting two equations.

Firstly, we want to make sure the absolute value of the coefficients that equal.

Lets eliminate b:

4a + 6b = 24

Multiply both sides by 2:

8a + 12b = 48

We also have:

6a - 12b = -6.

Now lets add that with

8a + 12b = 48

-> 6a + 8a + 12b - 12b = 48 -6

-> 14a = 42

-> a = 3

Now that we know a, lets plug it into one of our original equations:

4(3) + 6b = 24

12 + 6b = 24

6b = 12

b = 2

Finally, add the two values we found:

a+b = 2+3= 5

Jerome will be buying a used car for $11,000 in 4 years. How much money should he ask his parents for now so that, if he invests
hjlf

Answer:

$7,987.64

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,

A = Pe^(rt)

Here,

A = 11000  

interest r = .08

Time t = 4

Now,

11000 = Pe^(.08 * 4)

Or, 11000 = Pe^.32  

Or, 11000 / e^.32 = P

Or, 7987.6394 = P

Or, P= 7,987.64

Jerome will have to ask for $7,987.64 to his parents.

For question 1:

Since each person is going to eat 1/4 of pizza and there are two of them, there are going to be 8 slices. There are 5 people eating, that's 5 slices gone, leaving 3.

It would be <u>D.) 3/4 pizza</u>

For question 2:

three people order the same meal. Now, if I'm correct, the meal total is AFTER the coupons were used. so that would bring total cost up to $30.75.

Divide that by 3 for all three friends:

30.75/3 = <u>D.) $10.25</u>
