2x - y = -24
x + 7y = 3

Solve one equation for a variable and plug the resulting value into the second equation.

x + 7y = 3           Subtract 7y from both sides
       x = -7y + 3

Now, plug that x-value into the x of the first equation.

            2x - y = -24   Plug in the x-value
2(-7y + 3) - y = 24     Use the Distributive Property
  -14y + 6 - y = -24     Combine like terms (-14y and -y)
       -15y + 6 = -24     Subtract 6 from both sides
             -15y = -30     Divide both sides by 15
                  y = 2

Next, plug the y-value back into the second equation.

  x + 7y = 3      Plug in the y-value
x + 7(2) = 3     Multiply
   x + 14 = 3     Subtract 14 from both sides
          x = -11

y = 2 and x = -11

Answer: The correct answer is Choice C.

Step-by-step explanation: In order to solve this problem you need to look at the equation’s parts.

The first part is multiplying 5 by the contents of the parenthesis. So, 5(2x-2) equals 10x - 10. Now, but the equation together and simplify it:

10x - 10 + 10x =

Which do you pick and why? How much money do you end up with in each case?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

1. Start with $1 and then double the money you have everyday for 30 days. You would end up with 1,073,741,824 on the 30th day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Why you should choose the first option:

1 x 2 = 2

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 2 = 8

8 x 2 = 16

16 x 2 = 32

32 x 2 = 64

64 x 2 = 128

128 x 2 = 256

256 x 2 = 512

512 x 2 = 1024

1024 x 2 = 2048

2048 x 2 = 4096

4096 x 2 = 8192

8192 x 2 = 16384

16384 x 2 = 32768

32768 x 2 = 65536

65536 x 2 = 131072

131072 x 2 = 262144

262144 x 2 = 524288

524288 x 2 = 1048576

1048576 x 2 = 2097152

2097152 x 2 = 4194304

4194304 x 2 = 8388608

8388608 x 2 = 16777216

16777216 x 2 = 33554432

33554432 x 2 = 67108864

67108864 x 2 = 134217728

134217728 x 2 = 268435456

268435456 x 2 = 536870912

536870912 x 2 = 1073741824

What is 35 percent of 70
11111nata11111 [884]
35 Percent of 70 is 24.5
We assume, that the number 70 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. If 70 is 100%, so we can write it down as 70=100%. We know, that x is 35% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=35%. <span>Now we have two simple equations: 1.)70=100% 2.)x=35%</span>where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that: 70/x=100%/35% Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
