HELP PLEASE Use elimination to solve the system of equations 2x + 3y = 9 x + 5y = 8

Mathematics
1 answer:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

y=5/7   x=31/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the x values the opposite of each other:

-2(x+5y=8)

-2x-10y=-16

2x+3y=9

Combine like terms and solve for y:

-7y=-5

y=5/7

Plug y in to find x.

x+5(5/7)=8

x+25/7=8

56/7-25/7=x

x=31/7

Two Dimensional Nets and Surface Area - Quiz - Level
Virty [35]

Answer:

18\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that

The surface area of a cube is equal to the area of its 6 squares faces

so

The area of one square face is equal to

A=b^2

where

b is the length side of the square

we have

b=1\ ft

substitute

A=(1)^2=1\ ft^2 ---> area of one square face

Find the surface area of three cubes

Multiply the area of one square face by 6 (one cube has 6 faces) and then multiply the result by 3 (3 cubes)

so

SA=3[6(1)]=18\ ft^2

Last year Peter spent a total of 8 1/6 hours on community service. Visits to old folks' homes made up 4/7 of the total time. How
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

A. 4 2/3 hours

B. (i) 9 4/5 hours

(ii) 1 19/30

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, to find the number of hours he used in visiting old folks, what we have to do is to multiply the fraction of hours he used by the total number of hours.

Mathematically, that would be;

4/7 * 8 1/6

8 1/6 is same as 49/6

So the number of hours he spent visiting old folks would be ;

49/6 * 4/7 = 14/3 = 4 2/3 hours

B. What we do here is simply multiply the fraction now by what he spent last year.

That would be 1 1/5 * 8 1/6 hours

= 6/5 * 49/6 = 49/5 = 9 4/5 hours

ii) Now we want to know how much more time will be spent this year than last year.

What to do here simply is to subtract the time taken last year from what we have this year

That would be;

49/5 - 49/6 = 49/30 = 1 19/30
