To divide by decimals, put the decimal right where it is above it, and you just do regular dividing

You move the decimal how ever many times it takes to make it a whole number, but you have to do the same to the other number even if the other number doesn't have a decimal in it. For example 6.78 divided by 45. You would move the decimal spot twice to make 6.78 into 678. Then you have to move the "decimal place" in 45. This will then make it 4500

Help...,..........please..............

Here, Add both the equations in order to eliminate y,
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2

Now, substitute it in 1st equation,
8(2) - 4y = -32
-4y= -32- 16
y = -48/-4
y = 12

In short, Your Answer would be (2, 12)

Hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP Complete the table with the number of sit-ups you have to do sunday so that the mean number of sit-ups per day is 10

klemol [59]

The complete table will be:

$Monday - 100\\ Tuesday-65\\ Wednesday- 120\\ Thursday-150\\ Friday-90\\ Saturday- 0\\ Sunday-175$

Explanation

Suppose, the number of sit-ups in Sunday is $x$

Mean is the simple average of some numbers. For finding the mean number of sit-ups per day, we need to divide the 'total number of sit-ups' by the 'total number of days'.

Here the total number of days is 7 and the total number of sit-ups for 7 days $= 100+65+120+150+90+0+x= 525+x$

Given that, the mean number of sit-ups per day is 100. So, the equation will be...

$\frac{525+x}{7}=100\\ \\ 525+x=700\\ \\ x= 700-525=175$

So, the number of sit-ups you have to do Sunday is 175.
