What is the value of y in the solution to the following system of equations ?

1 answer:

4 0

We can use substitution method to solve for this system of equations. We calculate as follows:

2x – 6y = –14
-6y = -14 -2x
y = x/3 + 7/3

5x – 3y = –11
5x – 3(x/3 + 7/3) = –11
5x - x + 7 = -11
4x = -11 -7
4x = -18
x = -9/2
y = -9/2(3) + 7/3
y = 5/6

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

$8 \frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve

$2 \frac{5}{8} \times 3 \frac{1}{7} \\ \frac{21}{8} \times \frac{22}{7} \\ \frac{462}{56} \\ \frac{462 \div 2}{56 \div 2} \\ \frac{231}{28} \\ \frac{231 \div 7}{28 \div 7} \\ \frac{33}{4} \\ 8 \frac{1}{4}$

hope this helps you.

Given that ∠A and ∠B are supplementary, Daisy conjectured that ∠A≅∠B .

dexar [7]

When two angles are supplementary, that means that the sum of their individual angles is equal to a straight line, which is 180°. If you add another restriction where the two supplementary angles are equal, then each vale of the angle constitutes half of 180°. Then, that means that ∠A = ∠B = 90°. The answer is C.

Maria has added 2 liters of pure alcohol to 8 liters of a 48% alcohol solution. What is the alcohol concentration of the resulti

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The alcohol concentration of the resulting solution is 58.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

- At first we must to find the quantity of pure alcohol in the 8 liters

∵ The alcohol concentration is 48% in 8 liters

∴ The quantity of pure alcoholic = $\frac{48}{100}*8=3.84$ liters
