30 Solve by elimination: 2x - 3y = -6 -2x - 2y = 26 ,

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=-9,y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3y=-6...(1)

-2x-2y=26...(2)

To solve we will have to eliminate one of the given variables, the variable to be eliminated is x

And it can be done by adding up (1) and (2)

It gives

-5y=20

Divide both sides by-5

y=-4

Then substitute the value of y into (1)

2x-3(-4)=-6

2x+12=-6

Substrate 12 from both sides

2x=-18

Divide both sides by 2

x=-9

Therefore x gives -9 and y gives-4

Suppose 20 students delegates will attend the conference. Each school should be represented fairly in relation to it's populatio
algol [13]

Answer:

To find out the number coming from each school, you need to use the proportion of the school's population out of the population of all three.

Total population = 618 + 378 + 204

= 1,200 students

North Middle school:

= 618/1,200 * 20

= 10 students

Central Middle School:

= 378 / 1,200 * 20

= 6 students

South Middle School:

= 204/1,200 * 20

= 4 students

The height of a square pyramid-shaped gift box is one half the length of
Schach [20]

Answer:

15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a squre based pyramid :

V = a²(h/3)

a = base edge ; h = height

h =1/2 a

V = 4500

4500 = a² * (1/2a) ÷ 3

4500 = a² * a/2 * 1/3

4500 = a³/2 * 1/3

4500 = a³ / 6

27000 = a³

27000 = a³

Take the cube root of both sides

(27000)⅓ = a

30 = a

Recall:

h = 1/2a

h = 1/2(30)

h = 15 inches

Which is bigger 0.17 or 0.165
Bogdan [553]
0.17 is bigger because you compare the values of the number in each place. There is no whole number, the tenths place is equal. Then in the hundredths place you have a 6 and a 7. 6<7 so therefore 0.17> 0.165. To help yourself out u can add a 0 at the end to then more easily compare .170 to .165
