Answer:
4.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x + 3
-1 = -2(2) + 3
-1 = -4 + 3
-1 = -1
y = x - 3
-1 = 2 - 3
-1 = -1
Given Equations
- 5x+3y=8--(1)
- 4x+7y=34--(2)
Let it has solution (x,y)
Add both


It will also have same solution (x,y)
Answer:
Sixth graders: 14
Seventh graders: 28
Eighth graders: 28
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you just have to use a rule of three to solve the percentages, remember that the 100% will be the 70 students, and we solve each case separetly:
70 students= 100%
sixth grades= 40%
Sixth grades= (40*70)/100
Sixth graders= 28
70 students= 100%
seventh grades= 20%
seventh graders= (20*70)/100
Seventh graders=14
So if we have that the rest of the students are eighth graders, we just add up the sixth and seventh graders and withdraw them from the total:
28+14=42
70-42=28
SOwe have that the eighth graders are 28
The correct answer is 32 because:
x-14 = 18 => add 14 to both sides=>
x=32
