Answer: (-2,5)
Step 1: Rewrite equations
-3x+2y=16
x-2y=-12
Step 2: Changing the second equation
With substitution, you have to already have the equation to solve for the specific variable (ex: x=y+1;y=x+1). Since the equation doesn’t give us one, we can flip the second equation to give us this.
Let’s add 2y on both sides.
x-2y=-12
+2y +2y
_________
x=2y-12
Now we have the equation to solve for x!
Step 3: Substituting
Now we need to substitute x into the first equation. Let’s do this now.
-3(2y-12)+2y=16
Step 4: Solving for y
-3(2y-12)+2y=16
*distribute*
-6y+36+2y=16
*combine like terms*
-4y+36=16
*subtract 36 on both sides*
-4y=-20
*divide both numbers by -4*
y=5
This is y! Now we need to solve for x.
Step 5: Solving for x
To find x, let’s just substitute y into the equation and solve
x=2y-12
x=2(5)-12
x=10-12
x=-2
Step 6: Ordered pair
(X,y) —> (-2,5)

The answer is 4.5.
The formula for a rectangle is A = lw. Substitute the formula, so it'll be 27 = (2x - 3) * x. Evaluate the formula.

Answer:
36 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope can help you ...I use the formula that to find its area...
The initial cost is $12 to enter.
Each ticket is $.50
we want to find out how much it costs for 70 tickets so we multiply the cost by the amount;
70 x .50 = 35
Therefor including the entry fee, it would cost $35 + $12
Which is $47
I hope this helps! :)
Place each fraction under a common denominator. Remember, the number you multiply to the denominator must also be multiplied to the numerator
29/40 = 29/40
7/10(4/4) = 28/40
3/5(8/8) = 24/40
As seen by the fractions above, the order is 24/40, 28/40, and 29/40, <em>or</em> placed in it's original form is 3/5, 7/10, 29/40.
29/40 is the greatest, and is your answer
hope this helps
