Steps
I’m using elimination so I’m trying to get rid of y
To do that I multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by -3. Then solve
4x + 6x = 12
15x + -6x = -12
—————————
19x + 0 = 0
Divid by 19 to get x to one side. 0/19 is 0 so
X= 0
Plug that into an equation so 0 + 3y = 6
Divid by 3 and y = 2
Answer x = 0 y = 2
Answer:
True, all integers are rational numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because each integer can be written as n/1 and integers can be positive and negative. For example, 3= 3/1 , 3 is the rational number. But all rational numbers like 1/2 =0.5 are not an integer. (fractions, decimals are not integers.)
Answer:
There are 40 problems on the test
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p = the number of problems on the test
The number of problems on the test times the percent correct is the number correct
p * 85% = 34
p * .85 = 34
Divide each side by .85
p * .85/.85 = 34/.85
p = 40
There are 40 problems on the test
Answer:
20/7 days (just less than 3 days)
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that (1 job) = (rate)(time), so time = (1 job) / (rate).
Set up and solve the following equation:
1 job
------------------------------- = time required for 2 pumps working together
1 job 1 job
---------- + -------------
4 days 10 days
This comes out to:
1 job
------------------------------------------- = time required
10 job-days 4 job-days
------------------ + -----------------
40 days 40 days
or:
1 job
-------------------- = (40/14) days, or 20/7 days (just less than 3 days)
14 job·days
-----------------
40 days
