Answer:X= 1.84. Y= 3.08
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x+8y =8 ............i
-8x+10y= -16........ii
Multiply equation I by 8
Multiply equation ii by 9
-72x+64y = 64 ..... iii
-72x+90y = 144 ..... iv
Subtract iv from iii
-26y = -80
y= 80/26
y= 3.08
Put the value of y in equation i
-9x+8y =8
-9x+8(3.08) = 8
-9x+24.64 = 8
-9x = 8-24.64
-9x=-16.64
Divide both side by 9
-9x/-9 = -16.64/-9
X= 1.84
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 12 from both sides:
y + 15 - 15 < 3 - 15
Simplify:
y < -12

Answer:
The amount of weight he has lost in 3 months is 1.215 stone or 1 stone 3 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, we are to calculate the amount of weight he has lost in three months
1 stone = 14 pounds
Let's convert all the weight lost to stone
At the start of the diet keirin weighted 14 stone 13 pounds
14 pounds = 1 stone
13 pounds = x
Cross Multiply
14x = 13
x = 13/14
x = 0.9285714286 stone
Approximately = 0.929 stone
Hence:
14 stone 13 pounds = 14 + 0.929 = 14.929 stone
Three months later he weighted 13 stone 10 pounds
14 pounds = 1 stone
10pounds = x
Cross Multiply
14x = 10
x = 10/14
x = 0.7142857143 stone
Approximately = 0.714 stone
Hence:
13 stone 10 pounds = 13 + 0.714 = 13.714 stone
The amount of weight he has lost is calculated as:
14.929 stone - 13.714 stone = 1.215 stone or 1 stone 3 pounds
