Answer:

x = 3 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

using substitution method

let;

2x + 3y = 3 ................ equation 1

x + 2y = 1 ...................... equation 2

from equation 2

x + 2y = 1 ...................... equation 2

x = 1 - 2y .................... equation 3

substitute  for  x = 1 - 2y  in equation 1

2x + 3y = 3 ................ equation 1

2 ( 1 - 2y) + 3y = 3

Open the bracket  

2 -4y + 3y = 3

2 - y = 3

-y = 3 - 2

-y = 1

multiply both sides by -

therefore y = -1

put y = -1 in equation 3

x = 1 - 2y .................... equation 3

x = 1 - 2 ( -1)

x = 1 + 2

x = 3

therefore x = 3 and y = -1

to check for the correctness of your answer put the value of x = 3 and y = -1 in any of the equations. e.g

x = 1 - 2y .................... equation 3

3 = 1 - 2(-1)

3= 3................................. proved

Substitute the given values into the given formula and solve for the unknown variable. If necessary, round to one decimal place
ratelena [41]

Answer:

T = Time = 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

1 = PRT;

1 = Simple Interest = 5040

P = Principal = 24,000

R = Rate = 0.07

T = Time (years) = ? Unknown variable

Making T subject of the formula

T = 1/PR

T = 5040/24,000 × 0.07

T = 5040/1680

T = 3 years

Name two different ways to construct congruent angles
Norma-Jean [14]

A first way is considering opposite angles:

  • Pick a point, O
  • Draw two rays r,s starting from O
  • Let \alpha be the angle between r and s
  • Elongate both r and s with respect to O to obtain the rays r' and s'
  • The angle between r' and s' is also \alpha

Alternatively, you can start with a given angle, and then draw its bisector. By definition, the bisector cuts a given angle in two equal parts, so you divide an angle \alpha in two parts, both measuring \frac{\alpha}{2}

A fish tank with a rectangular base has a volume of 3360 cubic inches. the length of the tank is 14 inches and the width is 12 i
Alenkasestr [34]

water  the tank will hold = 14.583 gallons

<h3>What is cuboid ?</h3>
  • A cuboid is a three-dimensional or solid shape.
  • A cuboid is a convex polyhedron that has six rectangular faces, eight vertices, and twelve edges.
  • Another name for a cuboid is a rectangular prism. A cube is a cuboid with six square faces.
  • The basic formula for the area of a rectangular shape is length × width, the basic formula for volume is length × width × height.

Given : A fish tank  has a volume = 3360 cubic Inches.

        The length of the tank is =14 inches

                             the width is  = 12 inches.

         The height of the tank is = 20 inches.

           If one fluid ounce is = 1.8 cubic inches

Volume of tank = 14 * 12 * 20  =  3360 cubic inches

1.8 cubic inches   =  one fluid ounce

3360 cubic inches   =  3360/1.8   fluid ounce

= 5600/3    fluid ounce

As we know,

                  1 gallons  = 128   fluid ounces

water  the tank will hold    =(  5600/3 ) / 128

                                           = 175 / 1 = 14.583 gallons

Therefore, water  the tank will hold  = 14.583 gallons
