For this question you can say:
1/2 = 8/16
so now you can add easily:
9/16 + 8/16 = 17/16 and that's the simplest fraction but you can also say:
17/16 = 1.0625 :)))
i hope this is helpful
have a nice day
3x=4y
x+y=21
x = 21-y
3(21-y)=4y
63-3y=4y
63=7y
y=9
x+y=21
x+9=21
x=12
answer is (12, 9)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
L = 5
w = 3
Formula
Area = L*w
Solution
Area = 3 * 5
Area = 15
Now double both the width and the Length.
New Length = 2*5 = 10
New Width = 2 * 3 = 6
Area = New Length * New Width
Area = 10 * 6
Area = 60
Answer (look at the choices)
The old rectangle has an area of 15. The new Rectangle has an area of 60. If you double 15, do you get 60. No, so the answer is not A
The new rectangle is 60. If you halve it, do you get 15. No so the answer is Not B
C is the answer
D is you multiply 8 * 15, do you get 60? No so the answer is not D
