Answer:
a=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
5a+a=-10-8
6a=-18
a=-18/6
a=-3
answer is (-7,2)
y = -x -5
y= x+9
Both equations have y on the left hand side
So we equate both equations
We replace -x-5 for y in the second equation
-x -5 = x+9
Subtract x on both sides
-2x -5 = 9
Now add 5 on both sides
-2x = 14
Divide by -2 from both sides
x = -7
Now plug in -7 for x in the first equation
y = -x -5
y = -(-7) -5= 7-5 = 2
So answer is (-7,2)
Answer:
60% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
Work out the difference increase between the two numbers you are comparing.Then you increase the new number by the original number. Next you divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. Finally divide the increase number and the original number then multiply by 100. That will give you your answer.
1/6! Any fraction that represents less than a half of a whole is less than 1/2. You could also convert them to the same denominator and see the difference. Make sure whatever you do to the first fraction, you do to the other!
