Jet001 [13]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To have 16 more pages means he has 20% more of the book to cover if he has already covered 80%

Let the number of pages in the book be X

20% of X = 16

20/ 100. * X = 16

1/ 5 * X = 16 >>> X = 16 * 5 = 80 pages.

The perimeter of a triangle is 28 feet. One side of the triangle is 5 feet longer than the second side. The third side is 8 feet

Hitman42 [59]

side one is 5 side two is 10 and the third side is 13. 28 is not divisible by three so if one side i 5 ft longer and another side is 8 ft longer then you add them 5+8=13 then subtract 13 from the perimeter 28-13=15 then divide 15 by 3 and get 5 5 5. add 5 (5+5) (5+8).

-4x-2y=-12 <br>4x+8y=-24

sweet [91]

Answer:

x = 6

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

By adding both equations :-

=》-4x -2y + 4x + 8y = -12 + (-24)

=》-4x + 4x + 8y - 2y = -12 - 24

=》6y = -36

=》y = -36 ÷ 6

=》y = -6

putting the value of y in equation 2

=》4x + 8y = -24

=》4x + (8 × -6) = -24

=》4x - 48= -24

=》4x = 48 - 24

=》x = 24 / 4

=》x = 6
