Answer:
<em>Peter now has 54 baseball cards</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
Assume Peter had x baseball cards in his collection. The 35% of his initial collection is
35 * x / 100= 0.35x
We know that those 14 new baseball cards represent a 35% of his previous collection, therefore we can set a simple equation
0.35x=14
When we solve for x, we'll know how many baseball cards Peter had before
x=14 / 0.35 = 40
Peter had 40 cards, he added 14 new baseball cards, so he now has 40+14=54
Peter now has 54 baseball cards
5x - 2y = -6 ⇒ 10x - 4y = -12
2x - 1y = 1 ⇒ <u>10x - 5y = 5</u>
y = -17
5x - 2(-17) = -6
5x + 34 = -6
<u> - 34 - 34</u>
<u>5x</u> = <u>-40</u>
5 5
x = -8
(x, y) = (-8, -17)
2x + 3y = 432 ⇒ 10x + 15y = 2160
5x + 2y = 16 ⇒ <u>10x + 4y = 32</u>
<u>11y</u> = <u>2128</u>
11 11
y = 193.4545455
2x + 3(193.4545455) = 432
2x + 580.3636364 = 432
<u> - 580.3636364 - 580.3636364</u>
<u>2x</u> = <u>-148.3636364</u>
2 2
x = -74.1818182
(x, y) = (-74.1818184, 193.4545455)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • 2 = 4
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 3 .
-4 + -1 = -5
-2 + -2 = -4
-1 + -4 = -5
1 + 4 = 5
2 + 2 = 4
4 + 1 = 5
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
I don’t think any of them are correct .. but I may be wrong
The answer is 2.66666666666666666666666667 because 8/3 is 2.6666666666666667 mark as brainiest if i helped
