We have a system of 2 linear equations with 2 unknown, so we can solve it:
<span> 2x + y = 5
-3x + 2y = 17 
We'll use substitution, so lets solve for y in the first equation and substitute that in the second afterwards:
y = 5 - 2x
</span>-3x + 2(5 - 2x) = 17 
-3x + 10 - 4x = 17
-7x = 7
x = -1
then substitute in the original equation to find y:
<span>y = 5 - 2x = 5 - 2(-1)
</span>= 5 + 2
y = 7

What is the quotient? Will give brainliest and will report absurd answers.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, multiply the first number by the reciprocal of the second number

2/5 ÷ 1/3

First, find the reciprocal of the second number: 1/3

To find the reciprocal, flip the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number)

1/3-->3/1

Now, multiply 2/5 and 3/1

2/5 * 3/1

Multiply across the numerators and denominators

6/5

. Osteen has 32 marbles in his collection. 18 of his marbles are red, four are blue, and the rest are
nalin [4]

Answer: B

Explanation:  

32 marbles in total.

18 red marbles

4 blue marbles

10 green marbles.

You are asked what part of Osteen's marbles are red?

Probability = number of possible outcomes/total number of out outcomes.

P(Red) = 18/32 = 9/16

Both, 18 and 32 are divisible by 2 which gives 9/16. Since 9/16 cannot be reduced any further, we live it as it is. If you wanted to plug this into a calculator that would give 0.5625 which is 56.25% of Osteen's marbles are red.

P(Blue) = 4/32 = 1/8. 1/8 = 0.125 which 12.5% of his marbles are blue.

P(Green) = 10/32 = 5/16. 5/16= 0.3125 which 31.25 of his marbles are green. When you add 0.5625 + 0.125 + 0.3125 = 1 which is 100%. All probabilities add up to 1.

Hope this elaborate explanation helps.
