Answer:
-29.988 or if you round up -30
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Convert fractions to decimals
3.6 x (-8.33) = -29.988
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to get one positive 7y so,
4x-7y=5
9x-7y=-15
multiply anyone of the equation by -1. I choose the first one so,
4x+7y=-5
9x-7y=-15
we can now cancel the y's so the equation will be left with
-4x=-5
9x=-15
add the equations
5x=-20
divide by 5 n u get
x=-4
now plug in the x value in any one of the
equations
I choose the first one so,
4(-4)-7y=5
-16-7y=5
add 16 to both sides
-7y=21
divide by -7
y=-3.
finally check.
Answer:
1036 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of students at West High be "w" and the number of students at East High be "e"
West High population is 250 FEWER than TWICE of East High, we can write:
w = 2e - 250
Total students in both schools is 2858, so we can write 2nd equation as:
e + w = 2858
We can replace 1st equation in 2nd to get an equation in e, and find "e":
e + w = 2858
e + (2e - 250) = 2858
3e - 250 = 2858
3e = 2858 + 250
3e = 3108
e = 3108/3
e = 1036
Hence,
number of students attending East High School = 1036 students
Answer:
Let p be the number of pencils.
3(14-p)=30+p
42-3p=30+p
4p=12, p=3.
So Peter ends up with 33 and Tony with 11. 3*11=33, so that confirms that Tony gave Peter 3 pencils.
