Justin's statement would be the best. In order to change 3/5 into 6/10, both sides would need to be multiplied by 2.
Answer:
x= 5/4 ; y= -7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve your system by substitution.
(You can also solve this system by elimination.)
3x+y=2;5x−y=8
Step: Solve3x+y=2for y:
3x+y+−3x=2+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)
y=−3x+2
Step: Substitute−3x+2foryin5x−y=8:
5x−y=8
5x−(−3x+2)=8
8x−2=8(Simplify both sides of the equation)
8x−2+2=8+2(Add 2 to both sides)
8x=10
8x

(Divide both sides by 8)
x=

Answer:
D. 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum means addition (+)
Sum of a number, x and 1/2=4
This means the addition of the two numbers
x+1/2=4
Make x the subject of formula
x=4-1/2
Finding the L.C.M
= 8-1/2
x=7/2
x=3 1/2
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x² + 33 x + 37 = (4 x + 5) × (x + 7) + 2
