With this problem, it's essentially asking how many groups of 6 can fit into 324. We can do that simply by dividing 324 by 6 to get 54.
Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 5y = 7
3x - 2y = -12
Let's solve this by elimination. We want to eliminate one variable at a time. This means we need to multiply the equations to create a common multiple to cancel out a variable.
Let's work with y.
5y and -2y: For these values to cancel out, we need to multiply each term to create a common multiple.
2(4x + 5y = 7)
5(3x - 2y = -12)
Multiply.
8x + 10y = 14
15x - 10y = -60
Eliminate.
23x = -46
Divide both sides by 23.
x = -2
Now that we know x, let's plug it back into one of equations to find y.
4x + 5y = 7
4(-2) + 5y = 7
Multiply.
-8 + 5y = 7
Add.
5y = 15
Divide.
y = 3
Now we know x and y; let's plug both back into the equation we have not checked yet.
3x - 2y = -12
3(-2) - 2(3) = -12
Multiply.
-6 - 6 = -12
Subtract.
-12 = -12
Your solution is correct.
(-2, 3)
Hope this helps!
You have to add the same kind of terms, in this case the ones that have a variable (5.4q and -4.5q) and the ones that don't (2.4 and 3.6), like this:
(5.4q - 4.5q) + (2.4 + 3.6) = 0.9q + 6
The answer is c. 0.9 +6
It is correct because if you do the math you will come up with 48 - 24k = 48 - 24k
