Isabel accidentally lands in the Bahamas, but they are forced to turn around. Her mother begins to go into early labor on the boat. Ivan is attacked by a shark and dies.

Mahmoud crosses Macedonia, and takes a taxi to Serbia until they are held at gunpoint. They walk to Hungary and there the family is arrested and imprisoned at the border.

-6x+5y=8 2x-4y=2 i need a x,y answer and i need some steps too

Advocard [28]

Answer:

I. x = -3

II. y = -2

Explanation:

Given the following algebraic equation;

$-6x + 5y = 8$ .........equation 1

$2x - 4y = 2$ ..........equation 2

We would solve the algebraic equation using the substitution method

From equation 1;

$5y = 8 + 6x$

$y = \frac {8 + 6x}{5}$ .....equation 3

Substituting eqn 3 into eqn 2, we have;

$2x - 4(\frac {8 + 6x}{5}) = 2$

$2x - \frac{32 + 24x}{5} = 2$

Multiplying all through by 5

$10x - 32 - 24x = 10$

Rearranging the equation, we have:

$10x - 24x = 10 + 32$

$-14x = 42$

$x = \frac {-42}{14}$

x = -3

Next we find the value of y;

From eqn 3;

$y = \frac {8 + 6x}{5}$

Substituting the value of "x" into the equation, we have;

$y = \frac {8 + 6*(-3)}{5}$

$y = \frac {8 - 18}{5}$

$y = \frac {-10}{5}$

y = -2

Explain the relationship of the fovea to cones in the retina?

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Rods and cones convert light to neural signals which the nervous system can use. ... The 100 million rods are locates in the retina away from the fovea, so they carry out peripheral vision ("side" vision towards the edge of the visual field). Figure 6 shows the distribution of rods and cones on the retina.
