The first step for solving this problem is to multiply both sides of the bottom equation by -3.
$\left \{ {{6x-9y=16} \atop {-6x + 9y = -21}} \right.$
Add the two equations together.
6x - 9y - 6x + 9y = 16 - 21
Eliminate the opposites.
-9y + 9y = 16 - 21
Remember that the sum of two opposites equals 0,, so the equation becomes the following:
0 = 16 - 21
Calculate the difference on the right side of the equation.
0 = -5
This means that the statement $\left \{ {{6x-9y=16} \atop {2x-3y=7}} \right.$ is false for any value of x and y. That means that the answer to your question is (x,y) ∈ ∅,, or no solution.

Suppose 6 of 15 students in a grade-school class develop influenza where 20 percent of grade-school students nationwide develope

Snowcat [4.5K]

I am not sure what the question is here. I can tell you how to find the percent of kids that developed influenza in that class. We can compare it to the 20% of students nationwide. There could many different questions that stem from the piece of information you gave.

To find the percent of kids that developed influenza in that class do 6÷15 which gives you
.4 and written as a percent would be 40%.

Please message me if you have any questions! Hope this helps!
