10 \div  \dfrac{5}{7}

8. which of the following ordered pairs is a solution of the given system of linear equations
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Option D The solution of the system is the point (-3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x+y=2 -----> equation A

y=-2x-1 ------> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

Substitute the equation B in equation A and solve for x

x+(-2x-1)=2

-x-1=2

x=-2-1

x=-3

Find the value of y

y=-2x-1

y=-2(-3)-1

y=5

therefore

The solution of the system is the point (-3,5)

Alex

Answer:

252 bags of maize

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize

In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize

In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4

This means

3:4 = 2013: 2012.

Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x

3/4 = x/ 144

Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144

x = 3 × 144/ 4

× = 108

This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013

The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144

= 252 bags of maize.

a certain job can be done in 20 hours by 4 people. how many people are needed to do the same job in 10 hours?
maxonik [38]
If it takes 4 people to get a job done in 20 hours, then in 10 hours, it will take 2 people to complete the same job.
To find out how many people are needed to do this job in 10 hours, we can see that we got to 10 hours by dividing 20 by two so, to see how many people are needed to complete this same job in ten hours, we would just divide 4 people by 2 which is 2 people.
So, in conclusion, if it takes a certain job to be done in 20 hours by 4 people, then it would take 10 hours for that same job to be completed by 2 people.
Glad I could help!
