Hey there!

To start, first solve the equation of -2x + 3y =4 for the value of x since the coefficients appear to be smaller and easier to work with than the equation 4x- 6y= 9.

To solve -2x+3y=4 for x, first subtract both sides by 3y to isolate -2x:
-2x+3y=4
-2x=-3y+4

Now, divide both sides by -2 to isolate or solve for the x variable:
-2x=-3y+4
x=3/2y-2

Now that you have x set equal to the expression 3/2y-2, substitute this value for x in the equation 4x-6y=9:
x=3/2y-2
4x-6y=9
4(3/2y-2)-6y=9

Now, simplify this expression and combine your like terms: 
4(3/2y-2)-6y=9
(4*3/2y)+(4*-2)-6y=9
6y-8-6y=9
-8=9

Because you end up in an untrue mathematical statement, your answer would be that there are no real solutions for this system. 

Hope this helps and have a marvelous day! :)

4x-6y=9
2x+3y=4

4x=9+6y
X=9/4+6y/4
2(9/4+6y/4)+3y=4
18/4+12y/4+3y=4
9/2+6y=4
6y=8/2- 9/2
6y= -1/2
y= -1/12 x= 17/8

A smaller square is cut from a square board. The smaller square has a side length of approximately 14 feet. What is the approxim
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

204

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the inner square. 14 x 14 = 196

Then find the area of the outer square. 20 x 20 = 400

Subtract 400 - 196 = 204

204 is closest to 200

Bill has saved $825 from his last 8 paychecks. He saved either $75 or $150 a paycheck. Formulate and solve a system of equations
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer: 5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of times that he saved $75 be x.

Let the number of times that he saved $150 be y.

Therefore, based on the information given in the question, we can form an equation which will be:

x + y = 8 ...... i

75x + 150y = 825 ....... ii

From equation I,

x + y = 8

y = 8 - x....... iiii

Put equation iii into ii and this will be:

75x + 150y = 825

75x + 150(8 - x) = 825

75x + 1200 - 150x = 825

75x - 150x = 825 - 1200

-75x = -375

x = 375/75

x = 5

He saved $75 5times from his paycheck.

Solve for n.<br><br> 11(n – 1) + 35 = 3n<br><br> n = –6<br> n = –3<br> n = 3<br> n = 6
RSB [31]
Solve for n
Simply both sides 11(n-1)+35=3n
Distribute (11)(n) + (11)(-1) + 35 = 3n
11n+-11+35=3n
Combine like terms (11n)+(-11+35)=3n
11n + 24 =3n
Subtract 3n from both sides
11n+24-3n=3n-3n
8n + 24 = 0
Subtract 24 from both sides
8n+24-24=0-24
8n = -24
Divide both sides by 8
8n = -24
8 8
n = -3
