Jack is in debt after borrowing some money. He has more than -3.5 dollars and less than -2.5 dollars. Write this as an inequality.
Answer:
m = 2, n = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2m + 3n = - 5 → (1)
5m + 3n = 1 → (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate n
2m - 5m = - 5 - 1
- 3m = - 6 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
m = 2
Substitute m = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for n
Substituting into (1)
2(2) + 3n = - 5
4 + 3n = - 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
3n = - 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
n = - 3
Answer:
the area of the striped rectangle= length ×breadth
540/9 = 60cm
408/10 = 40.8
60-40.8 = 19.2cm longer
