One way you can solve it. Look for factors of the numbers in both the numerator and denominator. You will note there is 4. Divide 4 from numerator and denominator:

3/8 x 4/5 becomes 3/2 x 1/5

3/2 x 1/5 = 3/10

Check: 3/8 x 4/5 = 12/40; (12/40)/(4/4) = 3/10

3/10 is your answer

hope this helps

Please help me with this

Answer:

Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations are given to us. And we need to solve them . The given system is

$\begin{cases} y = 2x - 3\dots 1 \\ y = x^2 - 3\dots 2 \end{cases}$

We numbered the equations here . Now put the value of equation 1 in equation 2 that is substituting y = 2x - 3 in eq. 2 .

$\implies y = x^2 - 3 \\\\\implies 2x - 3 = x^2 - 3 \\\\\implies x^2 - 2x = 0 \\\\\implies x(x-2) = 0 \\\\\implies\red{ x = 0 , 2 }$

We got two values of x as 0 & 2 . Alternatively substituting these values we have ,

$\implies y = 2 x - 3 \\\\\implies y = 2(0)-3 \qquad or \qquad y = 2(2)-3 \\\\\implies y = 0-3 \qquad or \qquad 4 - 3 \\\\\implies \red{ y = -3 , 1 }$
