The answer is 2/3 because 3/8x16/9= 2/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying Equation A by (1/3) and adding the result to Equation B will do the trick. Let's actually solve the problem!
Equation A: (5/3)x + 3y = 12
Equation B: 4x - 3y = 8
---------------------------
(5/3 + 12/3)x = 15 Note how this has eliminated the variable
(17/3)x = 15 y.
x = (3/17)(15)
The correct answer is the 2nd choice because -1/6 is closer to 0 and the surface of the pool would be considered 0. -4/6 is farther away from 0 so it is less.
I count five 'k's there, so that part of the expression is
k⁵ .
Two 'n's form the rest of it, so that part is n² .
The parts are multiplied, so the simplest form of the expression is
k⁵ n² .
