8. ×150$=8×150=1200
-- ------- ------ 100. 100. 100
=12$
150$-12$
=138$

-9/15y+3/21=5/15y-14/21

Move 5/15y to the other side. Sign changes from +5/15y to -5/15y

-9/15y-5/15y+3/21=5/15y-5/15y-14/21

-14/15y+3/21=-14/21

Move 3/21 to the other side. Sign changes from +3/21 to -3/21.

-14/15y+3/21-3/21=-14/21-3/21

-14/15y=-14/21-3/21

-14/21-3/21=-17/21

-14/15y=-17/21

Multiply both sides by -15/14

-14/15y(-15/14)

Cross out 15 and 15, divide by 15 then becomes 1

Cross out 14 and 14, divide by 14 then becomes 1

1*1*y=y

-17/21*-15/14

Cross out 15 and 21 , divide by 3. 15/3=2, 21/3=7

17/7*5/14=85/98

Answer: c. y=85/98

Answer:

(d) 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation you're supposed to apply here is ...

an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the remote interior angles.

The exterior angle is 17x+7, and it is equal to the sum of the two marked angles inside the triangle.

17x +7 = 13x +3 +40

4x = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 13x+7 from both sides

x = 9 . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 4

Which of these systems of linear equations has no solution? A. 2 x + 8 y = 15. 4 x + 16 y = 30. 2 x minus B. y = 18. 4 x + 2 y =

Ilya [14]

Answer:

D. 4 x minus 3 y = 16. 8 x minus 6 y = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 2 x + 8 y = 15. 4 x + 16 y = 30.

Multiply the first equation by 2

4x+16y = 30 This is identical to the second equation so there are infinite solutions

B. 2 x - y = 18. 4 x + 2 y = 38.

Multiply the first equation by 2

4x -2y = 36. Add to the second equation 8x = 74 so there is one solution

C. 4 x + 7 y = 17. 8 x minus 14 y = 36.

Multiply the first equation by 2

8x +14y = 34 Add this to the second equation 16x = 70 There is one solution

D. 4 x minus 3 y = 16. 8 x minus 6 y = 34.

Multiply the first equation by 2

8x - 6y = 32 Subtract this from the second equation 8x - 6y = 34

0 = 2

This is never true so there is no solution
