All are correct because negative numbers are always smaller than 0 and bigger negative numbers always are less then smaller negative numbers such as -9 is smaller than -5
You add two equations together to eliminate a variable. This particular problem is nice, because it's already setup to eliminate X.
3x - 4y = 9
<span>-3x + 2y = 9
</span>
When we add these two together, 3x - 3x cancels each other out, leaving us with 0x, or nothing.
We continue with -4y + 2y (leaves us with -2y) and 9+9 (18).
-2y = 18
18/-2 = -9.
Now we have y = -9, and we can go back into the problems to solve for x.
<span>3x - 4(-9) = 9
</span>
3x + 36 = 9.
3x = -27
x = -9.
Confirm with the final equation:
-3(-9) + 2(-9) = 9
27 - 18 = 9
9 = 9 --- Confirmed.
Answer
36/9= 4
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a fraction equal to
36 gallons ÷ 9 minutes
We want a unit rate where
1 is in the denominator,
so we divide top and bottom by 9
36 gallons ÷ 9
9 minutes ÷ 9
=
4 gallons
1 minute
=
4 gallons
minute
= 4 gallons per minute
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a=3
b=-5
c=2
volume of a cone = (1/3)*pi*r^2*h
180 = pi(r^2)h
180/pi(r*2) = h
