Malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps. He has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps. Let x represent th

e number of domestic stamps and let y represent the number of foreign stamps.
This system of equations models the given information for both stamp types.

Answer:

y = 89 x = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

since they're both in standard form, its easier to do the process of elimination

x - y = 34

-x -y -212

------------------

-2y = -178

y = 89

now plug in y to any one of those two equations

x - y = 34

x - 89 = 34

x = 123

<em>to check:</em>

<em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>

<em>1</em><em>2</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>

<em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>

3 (x+2)+9&lt;6(x-3) solve the inequality and write the solution using interval notation​
Darya [45]

Answer:

(11, ∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (x+2)+9<6(x-3)

3x + 6 + 9 < 6x - 18

-3x < -18 - 6 - 9

-3x < -33

x > 11       (Note the inequality flips as we are dividing by a negative value).

which of the following best describes 4^2/3? a. sq root of 16, b. cube root of 4, c. sq root of four, d. cube root of 16
son4ous [18]

Answer: D) cube root of 16

================================================

Explanation:

The rule we use is

x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}

In this case, x = 4, m = 2 and n = 3.

So,

x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}\\\\\\4^{2/3} = \sqrt[3]{4^2}\\\\\\4^{2/3} = \sqrt[3]{16}\\\\\\

Showing that the original expression turns into the cube root of 16.
