3 0

So the operation words are divided and that operation word belongs to division so that means you divide 10 divided by 2 you do that because there is 10 people and your giving them the punch.
Anyways 10 divided by 2 is 5

The table can be used to determine the solution of equations, 2x − 2y = 6 and 4x + 4y = 28. Which solution can be used to fill i

notsponge [240]

Answer: (5,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations: $2x-2y=6......(1)\\4x+4y=28.......(2)$

Divide 2 on both sides of equation (1) and 4 on the both sides of equation (2), we get

$x-y=3......(3)\\x+y=7.......(4)$

Adding equation (3) and (4), we get

$2x=10\\\Rightarrow\ x=5$

Substitute x=5 in equation (4), we get

$y=7-5=2$

Hence, the solution of the both equations is (5,2).

A tank containing 64 gallons lost 6 1/4% of this through leakage how much is remaining is the tank

jolli1 [7]

if we take 64 to be the 100%, how much is 6¼% off of it?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 64&100\\ x&6\frac{1}{4} \end{array}\implies \cfrac{64}{x}=\cfrac{100}{6\frac{1}{4}}\implies \cfrac{64}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{100}{1}}{\frac{25}{4}}\implies \cfrac{64}{x}=\cfrac{100}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{25} \\\\\\ \cfrac{64}{x}=16\implies 64=16x\implies \cfrac{64}{16}=x\implies 4=x \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{it had}}{64}-\stackrel{\textit{leakage}}{4}\implies \stackrel{\textit{remaining}}{60}$
