Answer:

x = -6/5

y =7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = - 1

x - 2y = - 4

Multiply the first equation by 2 so we can eliminate y

2(2x + y = - 1)

4x + 2y = -2

Add this to the second equation

4x + 2y = -2

x - 2y = - 4

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

5x + 0y = -6

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -6/5

x = -6/5

Multiply the second equation by -2 so we can eliminate x

-2(x - 2y = - 4)

-2x+4y = 8

Add this to the first equation

2x + y = - 1

-2x+4y = 8

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

0x + 5y = 7

Divide by 5

5y/5 = 7/5

y =7/5

Sammie has 3 times as many goldfish as Nora. Nora has 4 goldfish.
defon
For Sammie the equation would be S=3N.

If Nora (N) has 4 goldfish, you substitute N=4 into the previous equation to find out how many goldfish Sammie has.

>  S= 3 x 4 
= 12

The next part of the question is asking you how many goldfish do Sammie and Nora have in all. If Sammie has 12 goldfish and Nora has 4 goldfish, the equation would be 12 + 4= 16

The answer would be 16 goldfish in total.

Explain why it is necessary to rename 4 and 1/4 if you subtract three fourths from it.
padilas [110]
Rename four and one fourth when subtracted from three fourths because when you subtract the fractions you get a different fraction for your answer.

4 1/4 - 3/4 = 3 1/2

so it's three and one half instead of four and one fourths!

Hope I helped! ( Smiles )

What are some examples of recursion in real life, such as things you can write a recursive equation for? (for example, fern leav
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: In programming terms, recursion happens when a function calls itself. If you have a problem that is too complex, you can use recursion to break it down into simpler blocks. You do this in real life all the time. Imagine you have a whole box full of $100 bills and you need to count how much money you have.
