Mathematics

Answer:

x = 2, y = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5y = 9

3x + 4y = 2

Multiply first equation by -3 and the second by 2:

-6x + 15y = -27

6x + 8y = 4            Adding the 2 equations:

23y = -23

y = -1.

Now substitute this value for y in the first equation:

2x - 5(-1) = 9

2x = 9 +5(-1)

2x = 9 - 5

2x = 4

x = 2.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. 236.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Population density can be found by dividing the number of people by the area of the land.

number of people / land area

The population is 20,510 people and the area is 86.8 square miles.

20,510 people / 86.8 square miles

Divide 20,510 by 86.8

236.290323 people /square mile

Round to the nearest tenth. The 9 in the hundredth place tell us to round the 2 to a 3 in the tenth place.

236.3 people/ square mile

There are 236.3 people per square mile and B is correct.
