-4.5x-2y=-12.5 and 3.25x-y=-0.75
we first multiply the second equation by -2
(-2)*(3.25x-y=-0.75)=-6.5x+2y=-1.5
add the equation to eliminate the y
so yo get (-4.5x-6.5x)=(-12.5-1.5)
-11x=-11
x=1
now we plug in x into any equation to solve for y
-45x-2y=-12.5 and x=1
(-45*1)-2y=-12.5
-4.5-2y=-12.5
-2y=-12.5+4.5
-2y=-8
y=4
then your answer is x=1 and y=4

A right rectangular prism has a volume of 470.40 cm³. The length of the solid is 6.4 cm and the width is 9.8 cm. What is the hei
andrezito [222]
<em>If a rectangular prism has a volume of 470.40 cm</em><span><em>³, and the length and width is equal to 6.4 and 9.8, we will find the height by using some inverse operations. We will use the variable h to represent height</em>

<em>Length x Width x Height = Volume</em>
<em>6.4 cm • 9.8 cm `• h = 470.40</em>

<em>470.40 ÷ (9.8 x 6.4)</em>
<em>     = 470.40 ÷ 62.72</em>
<em>     = 7.5</em>


<em>Check Answer:</em>
</span><em>Length x Width x Height = Volume</em>
<em>6.4 cm • 9.8 cm `• 7.5 = 470.40</em>

Help me please this is not easy for me 504
My name is Ann [436]
Let, S = Shirt, J = Jeans

14a) 
This question asks for the discount to be added after everything else.
S= 12   J=19

3S + 2J -3 = Cost with discount applied to total
^ This expression adds to costs, then takes away the $3 discount as the end.

14b)
This questions says the discount is added on every shirt, we get a similar expression:
3(S-3) + 2(J-3) = Cost with discount applied on every shirt and jeans

14c)
The difference between a) and b) is that:
 > the discount in a) is applied on the total, meaning a lower discount
> the discount for b) is applied on each shirt and jeans, meaning a greater discount

14d)
If I were the shop owner I would be more specific of what the discount included, for example we don't know whether to discount each product (shirts and jeans) or only discount the total.
