Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You would need to make them eliminate so I would multiply the entire first one by 2.5 to make the X's cancel out. So you would end up with -5X+7.5Y=17.5. The X's would cancel and you would be left with 15.5Y=15.5. So Y=1. Then replace Y into one of the equations. I'm going to use the top again. -2X+3(1)=7. Subtract 3 from both sides to get -2x=4. Divide both sides by negative 2 to get X=-2. So the solution would be (-2,1)
i think the answer would be C
The average is found by adding the numbers and dividing by 2.
Since the average is 17, the total of the two numbers must equal 17 x 2 = 34.
One number is given as 11, so subtract 11 from 34:
34 - 11 = 23
The other number is 23.
Too check: add 11 and 23 and then divide by 2:
11 + 23 = 34
34/2 = 17.
15 divided by 6 2/3 is 2.25. Or 2 1/4. Pick C
