Answer:

  • A = 4
  • B = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the values of x and y in the equations and solve the resulting system.

  A(2) +(-3) = 5

  A(2) +B(-3) = 20

__

The first equation tells the value of A:

  2A = 8 . . . . add 3

  A = 4 . . . . . .divide by 2

This and the second equation tells the value of B:

  (4)(2) -3B = 20

  -3B = 12 . . . . . subtract 8

  B = -4 . . . . . . . divide by -3

The values of A and B are 4 and -4, respectively.

40% of students on a field trip love the museum. If there are 20 students on the field trip, how many love the museum??
MariettaO [177]
Since there are 20 students on the field trip. Then 20 is the 100% total. Thus, to find how many people love the museum, we can simply multiply the total number of people by the percentage of interest, namely 40%

20*0.4 = 8
So, 8 people love the museum.
