Paul [167]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Solution point is (-1,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the value of y in the first equation into the second equation.

  • 2x + 5(3x - 5) = - 42            Remove the brackets on the left
  • 2x + 15x - 25 = - 42            Combine like terms on the left
  • 17x - 25 = - 42                     Add 25 to both sides
  • 17x - 25 + 25 = - 42 + 25    Do the addition
  • 17x = - 17                              Divide by 17
  • 17x/17 = -17/17                      Do the division
  • x = - 1    

=======

Solve for y

  • y = 3x - 6
  • x = -1
  • y = 3(-1) - 6
  • y = -3 - 6
  • y = - 9

A heart beat takes 0.8. how many seconds os it written as a fraction
Drupady [299]

The problem is asking you to convert 0.8 into fraction form. The number 0.8 is in decimal form and to change it to fraction form you have to get the number after the decimal point which is 8 in this problem.

8 would be the numerator of the fraction. Next step is to count how many numbers are there after the decimal point. In this problem, there is only one number so there will only be one zero beside 1 (10). 10 will be the numerator.

So, the fraction would be 8/10 or 4/5 (simplified form)

Marie purchased a 29.00 gift. She uses a coupon that offers 30 percent. How much will she spend on the gift after the coupon?
asambeis [7]

Answer:

$20.30

Step-by-step explanation:

The usual price of the gift is $29.00

Marie will get 30% DISCOUNT on this price if she uses her coupon. So, the final price would be 30% less than $29.00

First, we need to find 30% of $29.00. Then we need to subtract that from original price (29).

Convert percentage to decimal first:

30% = 30/100 = 0.3

Now multiply this with 29 to get:

0.3 * 29 = $8.70

We subtract this from original price to get DISCOUNTED PRICE:

$29.00 - $8.70 = $20.30
