X = 2/3y - 2
x + y = 103

2/3y - 2 + y = 103
2/3y + y = 103 + 2
5/3y = 105
y = 105 * 3/5
y = 315/5 = 63

x + y = 103
x + 63 = 103
x = 103 - 63
x = 40

so ur 2 numbers are : 63 and 40

X + (2x/3 - 2) = 103 : Write the expression.
x + 2x/3 - 2 = 103 : Remove parentheses.
(x + 2x/3 - 2) × 3 = 103 × 3 : Multiply both sides by 3 to remove the fraction.
3x + 2x - 6 = 309 : Evaluate.
5x - 6 = 309 : Combine like terms
5x - 6 + 6 = 309 + 6 : Isolate x by adding 6 to each side.
5x / 5 = 315 / 5 : Divide by x to find its value.
x = 63.
63 is one of the number. Now, find the second number using its quantity.
2x / 3 - 2
2(63) / 3 - 2
126 / 3 - 2 = 40.
One of the numbers is 63, and the other number is 40.

0.199<br> to the nearest hundredth.
RideAnS [48]
0.20 would  be the answer.
The number places on a number go as follows starting at 0. and going to the right
ones, tenths, hundredth
This means that 0.00 is the hundredth place (the bolded 0). Since you round a 9 up one, this makes the 1 in the tenths place go to a 2 and the hundredth go to a 0

Vince's birthday party is going to be at his favorite science museum next weekend. He has 8 friends who want to see the Dinosaur
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Dinosaur Discovery show = 8 friends

Wild Weather show = 4 friends

Cost of Dinosaur Discovery show = $d

Cost of Wild Weather show = $w

At regular price:

Total cost of his friends' tickets = 8 * d + 4 * w

= 8d + 4w

At half price

Total cost of his friends' tickets =

8 * 1/2d + 4 * 1/2w

= 8/2d + 4/2w

= 4d + 2w

Total cost of his friends' tickets = 4d + 2w

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use the substitution method.
BabaBlast [244]
The answer is:
4x+2y=11}  4x+2y=11} x=2-2y
x-2=-2y    }  x+2y=2    } x=2-2(-3/6)
                                      x=2-(-6/6)
4(2-2y)+2y=11              x=2-(-1)
8-8y+2y=11                   x=3
8-6y=11
-6y=11-8
-6y=3/-6
y=-3/6=-1/2

So for my opinion the solution is A.(3,-1/2)
