Are you acually in middle school because this is algebra 2 and im learning this now in High school
We can let
a = 1/(x-1)
b = 1/(y+2)
and rewrite the equations as
2a - b = 10
a + 3b = -9
Using the first to write an expression for b, we get
b = 2a - 10
Substituting this into the second equation gives
a + 3(2a -10) = -9
7a -30 = -9 . . . . . . . . simplify
7a = 21 . . . . . . . . . . .add 30
a = 3
b = 2·3 - 10 = -4
Now, we can find x and y.
3 = 1/(x -1)
x - 1 = 1/3
x = 1 1/3 = 4/3
-4 = 1/(y +2)
y +2 = -1/4
y = -2 1/4 = -9/4
Then the desired sum is
x + y = 4/3 -9/4 = (16 -27)/12
x + y = -11/12
The appropriate choice is ..
c. -11/12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume=legnth times widht times height
legnth times width=area of base
so
volume=area of base times height for a prism
area of base=160
height=32
volume=160 times 32
volume=5120
volume is 5120 cubic centimeters or
5120 cm^3
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
if 5n is equal to 135 the divide both sides with 5 and you will see 1n is equal to 27
