Multiply 2x-5y= -21 by 3 to make it 6x-15y= -63
Multiply 3x-3y= -18 by -5 to make it -15x+15y=90
This cancels the y’s out which leaves us with
6x=-63
&
-15x=90
x for 6x=-63 equals - 10.5 so x is - 10.5 and for -15x=90, x= -6
Then you plug in x into any equation you’d like to find y.
Let’s plug in - 10.5 into 6x... equation.
6(- 10.5)-15y=-63
63-15y= -63
-63 -63
-15y=0
y=0 and x= - 10.5. When you plug in this values it makes the equation true!
But the correct answer is the first one north. Sorry if I’m doing too much hahah
If I’m confusing here’s the right answer...
6x-15y= -63
-15x+15y=90
If Carly had more DVDs than Rob then you would subtract her amount away from the total. 42-4=38
Answer:
It takes 75 years for the investment to quadruple in value
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest
This is a simple interest problem.
The simple interest formula is given by:

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.
After t years, the total amount of money is:

In this question:
4% simple interest per year, so I = 0.04.
Quadruple:
t when T = 4P.
The interest earned is:



Now we find the time.

Answer:
x = 14.5 y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
get the x alone by subtracting 5y from both sides
10x + 5y = 150
- 5y -5y
10x = -5y + 150
divide both sides by 10
<u>10x</u> = <u>-5y + 150</u>
10 10
x = -0.5y + 15
Now that we've solved for x, we can plug it into the original equation
10 (-0.5y + 15) + 5y = 150
now we solve for y the same way we did x
first distribute 10 into (-0.5y + 15)
-5 + 150 +5y = 150
now we get the y alone
-5 + 150 + 5y = 150
+5 -150 -150 +5
5y = 5
now divide by 5
<u>5y</u> = <u>5</u>
5 5
y = 1
now that we have both x and y, we plug y into our solution for x
x = -0.5y + 15
x = -0.5(1) + 15
x= -0.5 + 15
x = 14.5
